Don't waste your money, this book is very very poor to say the least. One star is really one too many!!

2.Ishmael by: Daniel Quinn December 31, 1995
Average Rating: >>More Details		Used Price: £5.91
Much like the One Book for Waterloo this year, Hominids by Robert J. Sawyer, this book looks at the history of humankind on this planet and all we have done to it. It will challenge the prevailing belief that more and bigger is better. The book begins with an ad in the paper "TEACHER seeks pupil. Must have earnest desire to save the world. Apply in Person." In the book, the gorilla Ishmael has learned to communicate through thought with humans. He also has a message that we cannot afford not to hear. The book focuses around a series of conversations between Ishmael and his student. It presents a different interpretation of how we went from being a hunter-gather society to an agrarian one. Also how that system is bound to fail. For me the most haunting ... Read More:

3.Exercises in Style by: Raymond Queneau May 01, 1998
Average Rating: >>More Details		Used Price: £28.95
Okay, so that's a bit over the top. But these stories (one story, told in many different ways, actually) make me smile, make me think about language, syntax, construction and style, and inspire me to have a go myself. The writer uses a range of styles to explore the differences this makes to the story, and to the reader's perception of the protagonists. This book is a must for anyone who ever tried to write using different voices or in different contexts (for example, a letter has a different tone to a newspaper report, a police statement or a short story, probably). The stunning realisiation that this book is a translation from the French makes the translator seem just as remarkable as the author!

4.Mad About Madeline: The Complete Tales by: Ludwig Bemelmans September 30, 2001
Average Rating: >>More Details		List Price: £25.00 Off The Bookshelf's Price: £22.50 You Save: £2.50 (10%) Prices subject to change. Used Price: £18.00
I am sitting here with a young lady four years old who is also called Madeline and a large part of her being named Madeline was that I as her father - am "Mad about Madeline" too. It is the flow and rythmn of the stories plus the beautiful water color illustrations. My four year old's favorite is "Madeline's Rescue". My favorite is "Madeline and the Gypsies" but they are all outstanding. A childhood without one of these books - buy one of the paperbacks if you you are new to Madeline and don't want to buy the complete selection yet- is incomprehensible.

5.Whipped: 20 Erotic Stories of Female Dominance with DVD from: Chamberlain Brothers November 29, 2005
Average Rating: >>More Details		List Price: £8.35 Off The Bookshelf's Price: £7.62 You Save: £0.73 ( 9%) Prices subject to change. Used Price: £3.00
This book has gradually grown on me to become a regular bedside drawer item, kept there for the purpose of 'firing up the imagination' when required. It sure does that even if some of the stories seem tame, it's more by comparison with others within the compilation, the average writing standard being quite high. Not as 'hot' 'hard' or explicit as some may have hoped but a satisfying read nontheless.

6.One True Thing by: Anna Quindlen January 04, 1996
Average Rating: >>More Details		List Price: £6.99 Off The Bookshelf's Price: £5.49 You Save: £1.50 (21%) Prices subject to change. Used Price: £0.01
As the novel opens, Ellen Gulden is in jail, on suspicion of having aided in the death of her mother, a woman who had been experiencing agonizing pain from inoperable cancer. As Ellen reminisces about the five months she spent caring for her mother, the novel develops into much more than the story of her mother's death. Ultimately, it is the story of Ellen's emotional and spiritual coming of age, a positive story of growth and love, not the maudlin tearjerker that one might expect on the basis of plot summaries. When her father first asks her to come home to care for her mother, Ellen is resentful. She has been out of college only a couple of years, and her career as a journalist in New York is just starting. She resents the fact that she will ... Read More:

7.Story of B by: Daniel Quinn January 01, 1920
Average Rating: >>More Details		Off The Bookshelf's Price: £15.95 Prices subject to change. Used Price: £3.95
This book is very dangerous. After reading it, I was reeling from the shock for about two weeks. Once you let it seep in, the message is so obvious. The message in this book is applicable to every single person on this planet, and any argument you could ever have can be traced back to principles laid down in this book. It's nice and easy to read, but the message in intense. YOU must read this book.

This book is fantastic. It is one of the most original books that i think i have ever read. The language and dialogue is so wonderful that despite the fact there is no physical or mental description of the characters you are able to picture and understand them through the language. The book although it has very little plot is some how held together by the fact that we care so much for the characters, and when it finished i couldn't help but wonder what else might have happened on her next visit and whether she had changed. Zazie, Unkoo Gabriel and all the other cast of characters are just so fantastic and i couldn't forget Zazie after i had put it down. The book does sometimes employ strange spelling and long words to sentences that often cut ... Read More:

10.Anne Frank Beyond the Diary: A Photographic Remembrance by: Ruud Van der Rol, Rian Verhoeven March 30, 1995

I thought that this was a v. original and creative way of looking at Anne Frank's life. It was well set out and was always interesting. Basically, it is pictures of Anne Frank and things to do with her. It was very good.
