This Dr. Seuss book has a message. Believe it or not, the first time I was exposed to The Lorax was in my undergraduate Ecology course. It tells a story of greed and excess. It also shows that what we do impacts the environment and other species. The Lorax pops in now and then to remind the greedy Onceler that he is cutting down too many trees, destroying other animals homes, and polluting the air and water to boot. However, his message isn't well received and finally the last tree falls. It is ... Read More Read Reviews and Description

Customer Reviews and Description Not having a vast variety of player's guides to choose from, I compared this guide to one other, the one offered by Brady Games. The most essential difference that I could notice between the two guides that made me purchase this one by Prima instead is the lack of a Pokedex. The Pokedex is highly detailed, describing the various strengths and weaknesses of 200 Pokemon (obviously not including all the ones found in the various Pokemon versions, but only the ones found in Ruby/Saphire versions). The Pokedex also describes ... Read More Read Reviews and Description

by: Antoine de Saint-Exupéry, Richard Howard Amazon.com's Price: $9.00 Prices subject to change. Customer Reviews and Description This slender charmer has long been a favorite--since I read it high school French class. The golden-haired boy--an interstellar traveler--touches a responsive chord in many hearts: the fox who wants to be tamed by him; the stranded pilot who sketches for him when he'd rather be repairing his plane; even the small snake who offers to speed his journey home. Adults and young readers alike will treasure this gentle tale. Critics--those pompous and serious adults--debate St. Exupery's intention in this tiny masterpiece. Is it ...

by: J. R. R. Tolkien List Price: $35.00 Amazon.com's Price: $24.50 You Save: $10.50 (30%) Prices subject to change. Customer Reviews and Description J.R.R Tolkien's novel, The Hobbit, is a masterful piece chock full of mysticism and fantasy. This could easily be considered the epitome of great folklore. While adopting concepts from Greek epics such as Beowulf and other Norse legends, Tolkien continually surprises even the skeptic in us all. It has a series of twists and turns of mischievous deeds and heroicism, unraveling ever so slightly as the reader delves further in. As the novel begins, Bilbo Baggings, the humble, intelligent and often out-spoken hobbit, leads a quiet ... Read More Read Reviews and Description
