Title: "Average"? NO WAY!! Review: To the reviewer who declared this book to be only "average," I say "POOH!"This story is warm and cuddly, making it the perfect book to read to tykes preparing to drift off to Dream Land. Juster does a great job of using humor and play to show the special relationship between the child narrator in this story and her grandparents.I especially love Poppy's morning greating ("HELLO WORLD! WHAT HAVE YOU GOT FOR US TODAY?") because it gently teaches children to not fear the world. As the child sits at the Hello, Goodbye Window, she reinforces this message when she says, "...anybody can come along when you least expect it. ... They could all come! And a lot more if they want. And if they do, I'll see them first."Raschka's colorful illustrations perfectly compliment Juster's story. He is especially good at facial expressions. I especially adore the cover illustration.This book has joined my permanent collection. Why? IT'S AWESOME! Is the review positive or negative?

Title: The inside story from someone who knows Review: Dr. Don McDowall's book "The Truth About Sickness and Healing" has fabulous lessons and jewels in it culled from his long life in service to others. I read a few of them to my patient-friends while I was in Seattle, and they found them not only profound but "religous." Dr. McDowall's books about the healers and "shamans" of the Philippines, his "Clinical Pearls" from his long-life as an applied kinesiology chiropractor, his long spiritual journeys around the world and through the burgeoning channels of the human heart, his splendid writing style and his obvious love of life all come through in his work. He and his wife Annie (a two-headed oracular creature from the ancient wisdom schools of humanity) present a comprehensive picture of the methods for opening "the doors of perception" in order to discover that love, happiness, long-life and health are just under our noses if we but look.A small book to keep in ones pocket during your journeys through life.
