An extremely good book but very sad. If you want to learn about Somalia and Mogadishu and what happened on that dreadful day, this is the book for you. If you want to learn about Rangers and Delta Force in the heat of battle, this is the book.

Real people fighting real cancer, this book gave us focus and hope in our personal battle against cancer. The book is short enough that it can be read and followed.

My 8-year old son LOVES this book. It's easy to read (but not too easy) and has great illustrations.

This book is very authentic, translated straight from the Greek. Each myth has at least one telling by a classical Greek author, such as Ovid, Homer, or Virgil. It's very extensive, but the tellings are not always consistent with each other (e.g. there could be five tellings with five different views). I have enjoyed this book. Review submitted by a 12-year old classically educated student.

Debi Pearl has a lot of God-given wisdom from her years of walking with the LORD to share with other women. This book has some hard-to-hear truths (hard for some of us wives) for us -- and I think it's very worthwhile reading.

Learned about these books through my introduction to the Classical Conversations home education program, which draws heavily from these as sources for its weekly memory work. This is a great book for me both as a CC parent and a CC tutor.

I really like this book because it's a great summary of many important events from world history. I was introduced to it via Classical Conversations, which seems to have taken much of its Memory Work from this source. Very useful to me as a CC tutor and parent.

This book came along at a time when we were wondering if God knew where we were at. He does. Silvia's questions and her transparency helped mobilize our walk with the Lord. We read this aloud to our children every night; they were transfixed. What a blessed story.

A great book! Lots of details I've never read before such as how to safely come off an extended juice fast (your stomach has gone to sleep and it's dangerous to just go eat pizza the first day). Written by a very experienced juicer. Highly recommend.

This is an incredible true story! When you read about the hardships and trials that Yente and her family endured, and see the beautiful faith that was birthed as a result, you will be very encouraged to persevere in your own trials. This book is a great way to learn history as well. I read it aloud to my children, although I stopped before I got to the horrors of WWII because I felt it was a bit much for them. A truly beautiful, edifying book.

My 11-year old son says: "Extremely good book. If you want to learn about counter-terrorism, this is one of the best books I could recommend. It has several weapon categories, training categories, and other subjects related to counter-terrorism."

This rating is by my 11 year-old son. "If you want to learn about Navy Seals, this is a good book to get. It covers weapons, detonations, missions, gear, knives and underwater gear. This has a lot of the boats that they used in Vietnam and it has several commentaries from Seals. I wish this book had more on small arms, and more details about their missions."

This is a fabulous, life-changing book. It explains things that I've had a feeling about but couldn't articulate, in a very understandable fashion. God has never changed His mind about His chosen people and their Land, and we need to get with His program if we're to enjoy His fullest blessings in our lives.

Great book. We always knew there was a reason we couldn't stand the contemporary "rock" music at church (electric guitars, drums banging away, etc.). It's because it pleases and appeals to the flesh. This book will set you straight about worship that appeals to the heart of God.

This is the best book I've read explaining our changing world. He answers the question, Why has everything been outsourced? And how that is good for those who can think outside the box. This book also gives one a glimpse of what the future is going to be like. A must-read for anybody with an interest in contemporary culture.
