Pat the Bunny Book & Plush (Touch-and-Feel)

This "Pat the Bunny" book is exactly like the one I got for my boys 20 years ago when they were small. It's cute and inventive, but it is NOT sturdy enough for toddlers. Ours fell apart right away. Also the story and activities were not especially engaging for my boys. If you do buy it, I suggest that you put it out of the child's reach after you read it. Or buy high-quality board books instead.

As an aside, couple of terrific bunny-books that I recommend for youngsters are: "The Country Bunny and the Golden Shoes", (I can't say enough praises about this it, though it was published in 1939!), and "Home for a Bunny", a beautiful Golden Book. The story is sweet, and the illustrations so beautiful that I still love to look at them. Amazon has the "big version" which is hard backed. The "Country Bunny" is sold in the soft-cover version here.

Non-Designer's Design Book, The (3rd Edition) (Non Designer's Design Book)

This book is one of those gems that IF you need it, when you finally find it, the heavens open up and you realize that this mystery of life that has been befuddling you is really a pretty simply thing. The author "gets" how to simplify a complex subject so that it is both useful AND easy to apply to real world tasks... she uses lots of very good "before and after" examples of design issues that have been fixed so that your eye and your brain can "get it" as well... I HIGHLY recommend this book if you want to amaze your boss and co-workers (or friends or club members) with your new found ability to create well designed pages of any kind.

Chosen (House of Night, Book 3)

I liked this "House of Night" book but, this is the starting point where Zoey becomes too easy for my taste. I am not a prude (trust me), but as the series goes on you will see what I mean. Buy Chosen (House of Night, Book 3)!
