Title: Sell your shirt - buy this book! Review: Do you want to know the regime that the USA ought to be changing is called? How many Iraqis were there among the 19 hijackers on 9/11? None! How many were from Saudi Arabia - 15! Which passport does bin Laden hold? Saudi! This is not a conservative/liberal thing either - on the Hill, both Democrats and Republicans are united in standing together against flagrant human rights abuses by the Saudi regime on its own people. This is all to say that this is a vitally important, well-documented and cogently argued book that everyone ought to read right now!

Title: Illustrations are too scary Review: I bought this classic story for my son, based on the previous two reviews. Unfortunately, I will not be giving this book to him. Many of the illustrations are far too scary for a preschool child. I only wish the publisher had provided the opportunity to see inside this book before buying it on blind faith. Let's see...the giant himself has lots of large ugly teeth, a hairy mole-riddled misshapen head, and a permanent scowl on his face (His wife is just as mean and ornery looking.); there are skulls and bones, presumably the leftovers from past "meals," all over his castle (Try explaining what those are to a curious young preschooler!); while nasty looking vultures, rats, bats, and snakes abound. The artwork is indeed very detailed and colorful. However, in my opinion it is not appropriate for the younger age range (age 4) specified in the reading level. Is this product review negative?

Title: Awesome Text! Review: This book is user-friendly, and students really like it. The only thing they don't like is the price, but, every intro text like this is over $100 these days. I really love this text for teaching my introductory classes. Is this product review negative?

Title: Orange and rather... Wet. Review: I have some other sharpie highlighters that I love (these ones:Sharpie Accent Tank-Style Highlighters, 4 Fluorescent Yellow Highlighters (25164PP)), and I wish I had just bought more of those. I've been very disappointed with these highlighters. They are a very orange-y yellow, and not the traditional pure, bright yellow that I expect from a yellow highlighter. Also, they make the page really wet. Maybe the ink doesn't dry as fast, or it comes out more heavily, or something. I'm not sure what it is, but pages with heavy highlighting from these pens look wrinkled--almost water damaged. I would not buy these again. Is this product review negative?
