I loved Nancy Drew and the Hardy Boys and had a desperate wish that Frank and Nancy would get together. This book, while completely nostalgic and totally brought me back to my childhood, kind of made me not like Nancy. I waited on the wishlist forever for this book and was sort of disappointed by it.

As I read this to my son, I can totally still here Grover's voice as I read it. What a classic.

While this is useful in teaching the use of the thesaurus, it's not as good as the other Scholastic Dictionary of Synonyms, Antonyms, and Homonyms. It doesn't have a huge variety of words. It has the basics, so as I said, it's useful in teaching the idea of thesaurus.

A great resource for the classroom.


Serious Barbecue: Smoke, Char, Baste, and Brush Your Way to Great Outdoor Cooking

Helpful Score: 1


This cookbook is the best grilling cookbook I've seen. The recipes are definitely "weekend" recipes for the most part, taking a little more time and effort, but wow, the results are worth it. We haven't regretted a single recipe we've tried - and we've made a bunch. Absolutely outstanding!

I'm just getting into Sherrilyn Kenyon and generally love her books. This one wasn't quite as good, it was shorter and the plot less developed. However, I've read book 3 in the Dream Hunter series and it was as good as the first. Don't know what happened on this one.
