Entertaining
We have all three of the quiz books and my daughters love them. I highly recommend the American Girl books.

Good for car trips
This book is REALLY fun! I love all of the interesting little quizzes in it. I never would have thought of these things! I laughed at some of the answers. But what I really liked about this book was that most of the quizzes don't require a second friend, and you can do them on long car trips. This goes for Quiz Books 1 & 3 also! I love it! Highly Recommended!

This book is SO much fun! I can do it OVER & OVER again!
This is such a cute and FUN book! It's filled with really cute pictures and quizzes that help you learn more about you and your friends. You can do it with friends or by yourself. Either way, you'll definetely have fun. I GUARANTEE that! This book even has a quiz so you can find out what breed of dog you'd be if you were one. That one is of my favorite quizzes. In fact, I loved all of 'em. For those who already have the first Quiz Book, you'll love this as much if not more! :)

Number1 was A ,or B?
I really liked this book! It's fun to share with your friends, and it is has good illustrations. I don't want to write in this book, and it's kind of confusing trying to find out your score. If you really liked the first book, The Quiz Book, then this is a must have.

A,B,C,D, what should I choose?
This book is good if you enjoy personality quizzes but the answers are predictable and and it is really short,but I liked the questions,even though they didn't address many subjects I would've liked it to,, ... Read more

Kapitel: Herman Smith-Johannsen, Devon Kershaw, Brendan Green, Claude Godbout, Ivan Babikov, Brian Mckeever, Sarah Murphy, Beckie Scott, Tara Whitten, Alex Harvey, Chandra Crawford, Pierre Harvey, Sara Renner. Aus Wikipedia. Nicht dargestellt. Auszug: Sara Renner (born April 10, 1976) is a Canadian cross-country skier who competed from 1994 to 2010. With Beckie Scott, she won the silver medal in the team sprint event at the 2006 Winter Olympics in Turin and earned her best individual finish of 8th in the 10 km classical event in those same games. She was born in Golden, British Columbia. Norwegian coach Bjørnar Håkensmoen gave Sara Renner a ski pole after hers was broken when a competitor stepped on it during the cross-country team sprint at the 2006 Winter Olympics. Norway's athlete ended up fourth, implying that this selfless act of sportsmanship may well have cost the Norwegian team a medal. Renner gave Håkensmoen a bottle of wine as a thank you, while other Canadians responded with phone calls and letters to the Norwegian Embassy. Canadian businessman Michael Page donated 8,000 cans of Maple Syrup to the Norwegian Olympic Committee to show his gratitude. The incident was immortalized in a 2010 Winter Olympics television commercial. In 2001 Renner posed nude in a calendar called "Nordic Nudes" to help raise money for the Canadian women's Nordic ski team. Teammates Beckie Scott, Milaine Thériault, Jaime Fortier and sister Amanda Fortier also posed nude for the calendar. Renner is married to retired Italian-Canadian alpine skier Thomas Grandi. Grandi had family support out for himself and his wife during the Turin Olympics. On September 18, 2006, Renner announced that she is taking the year off to have a baby with husband Thomas Grandi. Renner is committed to coming back after her baby is born, and leading the women's team to Vancouver 2010. On February 2, 2007, Renner gave birth to a girl named Aria at a hospital in Banff, ...http://booksllc.net/?l=de ... Read more

Excerpt: John Myung (pronounced ) (born on January 24, 1967 in Chicago, Illinois) is a bassist, Chapman Stick player and a founding member of the progressive metal group Dream Theater. Born in Chicago to Korean parents, Myung grew up in Kings Park, Long Island, New York. He played the violin from the age of five until he was asked to play electric bass in a local band when he was fifteen. After graduating from high school he and his high school friend John Petrucci enrolled at the Berklee College of Music, where they met future bandmate Mike Portnoy. The three of them formed the band Majesty with another friend from high school, keyboardist Kevin Moore and vocalist Chris Collins. The band would later change its name to Dream Theater. Though Dream Theater is his primary focus musically, he has appeared in a number of other projects through his career. His first non-Dream Theater venture was in the pop-prog band Platypus with Rod Morgenstein, Ty Tabor and ex-Dream Theater bandmate Derek Sherinian. He is also a member of The Jelly Jam, which consists of the same line-up as Platypus, but without Sherinian. Apart from his membership in these bands, he has appeared as a guest on numerous records. He also played keyboards in the spoof band Nightmare Cinema as Juice Malouse. Myung's main influences include Chris Squire, Steve Harris, Geddy Lee and Cliff Burton, and their res...More: http://booksllc.net/?id=469030 ... Read more

The seller sent it quickly and I cant believe the low price I paid.Thanks so much

Fast Service..Wrong Book
I was so impressed by the fast service..to bad I didn't order the book I received.

Great book
The book arrived in perfect condition and all my friends appreciate the thought that went into selecting it for their special birthday.

Who's to say who's an expert on being 50?
There was some good advice in here, or more accurately some vignettes. I didn't get much out of this book that I could apply to my own life. However, some people may find the stories inspirational, so I gave it an extra star for that reason.

Great Advice for Any 50 year old!
This book is written in short snippets of good advice, brief stories, and lessons learned.I bought it in anticipation of my 50th birthday and it helps bring perspective to what is important as I move to my later years.Retirement, aging, losses, are not death sentences for us.Women who still have a pulse will enjoy this book. ...

Reviewing "The Bare Essentials" (4th Edition, 1996)
I have NOT read this edition (1983), but HAVE read the more recent "The Bare Essentials" (4th Edition, 1996), ISBN: 0-7747-3361-6.

Perhaps you feel that you are pretty good in writing in English, but if you don't know why you write the way you write; if you are unsure of certain rules of language; if you feel you need to convey your ideas better, then you may need to recover, discover, and refine your English skills. This book is the one.

"The Bare Essentials" (4th Edition, 1996) gives short lessons, followed by rules of principle in-between, and then straight to exercises. There is hardly any waste of paper -- no winded and unnecessary vocabulary or explanations, or unnecessary redundancy. I don't remember a time when I was confused. The instructions and principles are explained in such a clear way that the idea that "the reader must understand" takes precedence over anything else. The book covers some topics we often have trouble with because of lack of attention given to them; they include common spelling mistakes, the semicolin, and writing paragraphs.

This book took me back to the basics and by the end of the book, my English had improved significantly. Since reading this book and doing the exercises, I'm of course, still not perfect, but I am a lot more confident in my writing as well as my verbal skills. I rely on, and continue to build my skills I have learned from this book. This is a sound investment.

Thank you Sarah Norton and Brian Green. ... Read more
