Anonymous Coward User ID: 20455247 United States 11/27/2013 02:38 PM Report Abusive Post Report Copyright Violation | [link to www.barnesandnoble.com] Quoting: Anonymous Coward 20455247 I was deeply influenced by ABC: A Child's First Alphabet Book by Alison Jay The surprise ending haunts me to this day. Though the link would have brought you to the correct book I wished to point out that the author's first name is Alison with one "L" and not two in case you go searching for other titles by that author. Great author and the book I cited above is a great companion piece to 1-2-3: A Child's First Counting Book [link to www.barnesandnoble.com] You can often find them in a box set. You may think I jest, but please read the reviews if you won't take my word for it. Two of the most influential books in my life — I cannot recommend them enough. |

You have saved me much time and stress trying to search for books. I love all suggestions so far and I am going to buy as many of them as I can this time around. I spend way too much money on books..it is my one splurge.. Everyone who knows me knows this was the perfect gift for me :) I have over 2000 books in my collection and have read them all. Some of them more than once. Needed some new blood, so to speak :) You accept the love you think you deserve~~~ Love cannot live where there is no trust~~~ Truth has no temperature~~~ Love like it's never gonna hurt~~~ Have no regrets~~~ |

On the better side, buy "He Walked The Americas" by Tolken. It details this mans 25 year venture to meet many indigenous tribes in all of North America and South America. With each tribe he had to earn the respect of the elders to be told of the story passed down for 2000 years. All the elders speak of the "Healer" that came to the Americas over 2000 years ago.
