I recommend this book. It is set in the 1950's and is about a Chinese girl adopted at 3 years old into a white family. The story is told from the point of view of the girl and is about her struggle to fit in. There is prejudice that she has to deal with. It was interesting and I enjoyed it.

This book was very interesting. Clifford wanted to bury a bone but everybody was saying that digging is bad. Also, the storm was coming and everyone was afraid that library would flood during the storm. Clifford helped build the wall and saved the library.

This richly detailed realistic fiction moves quickly through the life of the main character, Sam Hill. The character driven novel brings to light everyday human struggles and the interesting interplay between characters that result. The indomitable strength of the human spirit and the ageless question of faith are woven throughout the novel. The question of what is an exceptional life is a key thread throughout.

This book was funny and interesting to read. Mr. Mole was alone and was looking to have friends. Finally he found Ms. Mole and they were very happy.

Peppa's class was preforming "Little Red Riding Hood". All the kids were very excited, Peppa was a Little Red Riding Hood, Danny Dog was the Big Bad Wolf. Everybody did a great job acting and all the parents were very proud.

One of my favorite authors, did not disappointment!

The book goes back & forth between Slaverytime & Freedomtime around the Civil War. The mother is Miss May Belle & daughter is Rue. Miss May Belle is a healer, midwife & conjures curses on people. She teaches her daughter her craft. Rich in descriptions of plantation working & family life. Superstition & fear surround a boy named Bean that Rue birthed with a “caul”. Rue fears the boy & feels the need to protect him from the others on the plantation who accuse the little boy of bringing a deadly sickness to the other children. A preacher comes to the plantation & gets involved with “saving” the sinners,Bean & Rue through baptism. Theres a lot going on in the story between relationships of plantation owner, his daughter Varina, Rue, the preacher & May Belle. This is fiction based on history & I loved it!

Ove is a character. I heard many people liked this novel. I had to read it. Everyday events, neighbors, life in general are all explored in this book.

When you think the past is over and you've moved on in life,there is no harm in catching a little spring fever...is thete?

In Shock: My Journey from Death to Recovery and the Redemptive Power of Hope Book by Rana Awdish It is always an experience when we get the experience of living on the other side of the tracks. The author did an excellent job of expressing what her experience was like when she wore the robe of a patient instead of that of a doctor. She had the experience of lying in a hospital bed and watching and hearing the treatments that patients get from their medical team. She was able to experience the coldness, insensitivity, the mistakes, the delays, nasty attitudes and the attitude of being treated as a subject, as a bed #. She saw and heard, ego, self-satisfaction, received nonchalant attitudse from the medical team caring for her. This was an eye opener for her and made her determine in her heart that she would not display these attitudes in her practice.
