Product review: I wanted to love this video but unfortunately all of the videos in this series are so very boring! My high school students were so disappointed. The videos are informative but not in a way that would cause excitement or interest in the classroom. I was ready to turn it off within the first 15 minutes.

Review title: Simply, my favorite Al Stewart album Product review: I can't believe that this CD is available again. I had looked for it for years, and finally got an original CD in an online auction for $88 (still worth it to me.) This was my absolute favorite Al Stewart album. Constantinople, Merlin's Time, Paint by Numbers ... terrific music. Now you all have the opportunity to get it for next to nothing. What are you waiting for?? Buy it while you can. Next time you look, it might not be available.

Review title: Broke just after one year of use Product review: This blowdryer performed well for the first year, during which I used it approximately once a week, almost always on "high." (The high setting is very hot, though, and some may find it uncomfortable.) However, just after one year of use, I tried to use it on low one day, and it stuck there. Something inside came unhinged, and it will not turn off or switch to the high position. I cannot figure out how to get it apart to fix, so it is now largely useless to me.

Review title: Is a Car Crash an Appropriate Topic? Product review: Clever colorful drawings and fun noises to read aloud, but as other reviewers have noted, I'm not sure I want to read this book to my son given its subject matter. Maybe I sound like an overly fretful mother, but there are so many great books out there, it might be best to forgo this one.
