Adventure Time Crafts

                                                                                         


I was so excited to when I received this book in the mail! The book is based on the Cartoon Network show Adventure Time. My kids do watch and enjoy the show. So we were excited to receive the book.

I like how the products in the book seem easy enough for the kids to do. The supplies needed are usually stuff that we have around the house already. Saying that, there are some products in the book that will need some adult supervision.

I would recommend this book to anyone with kids or not! Who just love to try and make new things. Good book to have on hand for a rainy day.

League of Denial




                                                                                            
   
"League of Denial" by ESPN journalists Mark Fainaru-Wada and Steve Fainaru is an interesting and somehow shocking read for NFL fans, about some awful discoveries related to diseases and deaths of ex-NFL players.
Wow. What a great book. A very eye opening book. I like the discussions of the issue of potential of brain damage. I don't think helmets help much. They prevent scull concussions, but not internal brain rattling. All sports come with some kind of risk.
These guys tell a detailed and frightening account of how the NFL for years did everything they could to silence specialized doctors that were sounding the alarm on the brain damage epidemic that is tragically robbing former players of normal lives after their career. You'll never watch a game the same way after reading this. It is also thoroughly entertaining. You won't be able to put it down.
I recommend this book!

What a great book! I'm not a drawer at all but this book is great for any beginner! I loved all the step-by-step pictures. This book is great and entertaining for kids and adults alike! My kids got a kick out of how to draw a dinosaur. My son is really into dinosaurs right now and this book was perfect for him.

A wonderful put together book for anyone who is a crazy dinosaur fan!

                           All Is Well: Heal Your Body with Medicine Affirmations, and Intuition
 
                                               by Louise L. Hay, Mona Lisa Schulz 
 
What can I say.. I loved this book. I've been a fan of Louise Hay for a couple years.  I loved her video "You Can Heal Your Life" Such a good read. I like how her books are straight forward and gets to the point. All  the information she provides is great and helpful. I know I've had many of my own "Ahh Haa" moments! I would recommend this book to everyone.
