Title: Excellent, Eye-opening Book for Parents as Well as Educators Review: I bought this book to familiarize myself with the Reading Recovery program. It opened my eyes to several things I have been doing when helping my child read which actually hinder a child's ability to decode words by themselves. Too much focus on the mechanics of reading and the letters in a word can contribute to problems when the child moves beyond the most basic reading skills.Marie's book offers many excellent suggestions for working with a child. Her suggestions help a child grow in their reading without getting in their way. The lists of activities and skills to be acquired are helpful. We have seen tremendous progress in our child's ability to read independently since implementing the reading recovery program.I think every parent who has a child struggling with reading could learn something from this book. I also think it would make excellent reading for any educator interested in helping their students read better. Is this product review negative?

Title: riveting Review: My daughter, age 11, devoured this book. A graduate of the Redwall series (but not Harry Poter), she loved this fantasy seasoned with history. The friends she's loaned it to have also enjoyed it. I think the authors had a blast writing it. Well worth the purchase for the imaginative young reader. Is this product review negative?

Title: Not What I Expected--Shallow Review: This book will be of no use when dealing with the break-up of a serious relationship. One of the suggestions is to go shopping. Great, not only will I still have a broken heart, but I'll be up to my eyeballs in credit card debt too. This book is only good for a few laughs when dealing with the break-up of a short and superficial romance. Is this product review negative?

Title: Good basic digital thermometer Review: These thermometers work just fine.They are pretty basic, nothing fancy, but they work fine.I bought three of these so we would have one in both diaper bags, and in the house.I tested all three in a glass of warm water, and they all read within 1/10th of a degree.The beeps arent as quiet as some of the reviews say, you shouldnt have any problem hearing them,unless you have hearing problems anyway.I would rather have the beep be on the quiter side anyway, when your taking a sleeping baby's temperature.Good product overall!
