Not enough .......2007-09-20

This book is only guide lines of topics. If you recently finish college and
have all your material fresh in your head this is the book for you, but if you are like me and needed a good review this is not your book. There is a lot of material in the test regarding ceramics, photography, and architecture artist that are not found in this book not even a mere mention.

Don't bother .......2007-09-06

Bought this book for the Art:Content Knowledge test and found I paid for only 24 relevant pages out of a 186 page book. Don't bother if you only need to take one of the art related tests. Go to the web site and view the sample test online for free and search other sites for test content. Otherwise there is some advise on how to take a praxis test--oh boy!

A good starting place.......2007-08-05

This guide does not help much in giving information- but it was helpful as a starting point for studying. I looked up every answer I didn't know- and every possible choice I didn't know and felt very prepared going into the test. The graded answers for the essay questions were the greatest help the book provided. Having the essay questions to practice on (and set the proper time limit with ) was very helpful. I was able to compare my answers with the graded answers and better understand what they were looking for and how I could improve my essays.

Very Helpful!.......2006-10-13

These books are make by the people who write the Praxis exams! You will work to look up the review questions and topics, but it's well worth it when you pass the test with flying colors!

A good source for quick ideas.......2000-10-30

I like this book because it has ideas for quick projects and a lot of them you can do with kids at home or in a classroom. I didn't know that stencils are so easy to make with heavy plastic sheets and I've made stencils to decorate my bathrooms as well as gift wrapping paper. My kids can just tell me what kinds of rubber stamps they want and I cut them myself - a huge savings and one of a kind designs! I even made a portfolio carrier that I use to carry sheet music to classes and everybody loves it. I highly recommend this book for really easy and usable ideas.

Good book for the beginner.......2000-03-29

Being new to papermaking, I found this book to be a great starting point. It has a lot of really great photographs but is slightly lacking in photos and illustrations to accompany the instructions. On the positive side, it also includes some basic projects to make with your handmade paper.

VINTAGE HUMOR!.......2001-03-17

The entire cast of characters at Camp Swampy are reporting to the frontlines of the comics for laugh duty, SIR!

Beetle Bailey, the central character is the world's laziest, most lovable soldier in creation. He devises one funny scheme after anothe to test Sarge's mettle, lead his fellow enlisted men into hilarious stunts and in general, turns Camp Swampy into a comedy club. (Check out the part when Sarge raids the showers. That part will leave you laughing for a long time).

Yes, this book is such a worthwhile treat to have. Hop into your Government Issue Jeep and head on over to Camp Swampy!

Earlier Strips.......1999-12-28

I'm not exactly sure when these strips were first published but if I had to guess I'd say sometime around the 60's. These strips are done in comic book fashion rather than the normal comic strip fashion (meaning they tell little, humorous stories). A fine addition to any Beetle Bailey fan's collection!

Definately not the gentle riders!!.......1999-03-17

Sarge has it comin' when he busts in on his troops in the shower....don't ask don't tell baby!

Book Description

Finally, there's a fun and funky way for today's single women to escape the chaotic and stressful dating scene-the patch! Filled with colorful illustrations, catchy advice, and four sheets of "patches" (stickers in the four patch designs), this entertaining book follows a thirtysomething everywoman down a new dating path. Fed up with the usual singles scene, she's given up on finding Mr. Right, but she doesn't want to abandon all of the feelings associated with relationships. Now, thanks to the revolutionary Stuck on You patch process, she doesn't have to! Each step in the patch program delivers a new level of dating emotions:

Step 1-Anticipation. This fuzzy, pink heart-shaped patch will have single girls giggling, blushing, and waiting by the phone.
Step 2-Connection. This shiny, red lightning-shaped patch leads to new lingerie and lots of time in the bedroom.
Step 3-Commitment. This dull olive patch plants women firmly on the couch, wondering why they watch so much TV. And where did their sex drive go?
Step 4-Reentry. This sparkly, blue star-shaped patch will have single girls remembering their relationship searches with renewed eagerness, ready to tackle dating once again!

For any woman who's looking for a relationship, or simply fed up with the one she already has, this parody of self-help science is guaranteed to stick with her through all the ups and downs of modern dating.

When you're going through a rough patch, dating-wise. . . .......2005-12-08

Light-hearted fun for the broken-hearted or those who are merely tired of the same ole same ole dating encounter. A really unique concept! A book with never a dull moment!

Great fun...no commitment required.......2005-11-30

I saw the movie "Shopgirl" last week, and I was just thinking:
If Claire Danes' character had read and taken to heart "Stuck on You" then used the appropriate, supplied patches inside the book's back jacket, she and Steve Martin's character could have preempted much of the plotline. One was obviously looking for more in the other than preppy, wealthy and quirky.
As an appreciator of gender communication, relationship preservation and quick, fun, clever reads, this is a winner of a stocking stuffer. If you end up playing "Dirty Santa", it's bound to be the most sought after and most prized claim of the party.

I saw myself in this book!.......2005-11-22

Katie and Tim are really on to something here - after coming out of the Summer of Hell Ex-Con Closet Case Pervert Dates, this book helped me begin to slowly heal through some of the worst, most devastating, not to mention most disppointing encouters in my life. I look at the stickers as humorous band-aids that will hold our hearts, minds and souls together until we are whole enough to find someone that is our true equal. Everytime I wear a patch, it serves as a reminder that I am okay, and that I will never have to settle for less than I desire! All the while laughing, and thank heaven I can now because of Katie and Tim BRAVO! (When's the next one coming out?)

Stuck on You: Do-It-Yourself Patches for the Single Girl.......2005-07-08

I saw the book, and the artwork caught my eye. I perused it, I bought it, I read it. I thought it was so good, funny and original and witty. I thought well now i will take a break and date myself for awhile and see how I feel. I put on the reentry patch and I was good to go. Now go buy the book and have fun. Joanne Resnick

I'm doing it myself!.......2005-06-29

A witty take on the whole dating scene. Patches aren't just for the nicotine addicted anymore! Now we can rid ourselves of the biggest addiction of all - men! A cute gift for a friend in frustration or to share during a girls night in! And it comes with the patches so you don't need to buy anything else! :)

Book Description

This reference work catalogs music for organ and harpsichord written by more than 700 women composers from 40 countries. Compiler Adel Heinrich has expanded the organ and harpsichord repertoire to include choir and instruments accompanying organ and harpsichord. She provides more detailed information about each work than can be found in any other reference book on women composers. In addition to biographies for each woman, Heinrich supplies listings of individual compositions, and includes descriptions and sources whenever possible. Each composition is listed in both the Instrumentation Index and the Title Index. Publishers, library sources, and recording companies with their addresses are also provided. There is also a chronological listing of composers by country. Two appendices list a large number of women who have either written music for organ and harpsichord with no specific titles known, or have performed on one or both instruments. This reference book is a valuable resource for organists, harpsichordists, teachers, choral and instrumental conductors, and planners of festivals and recitals.
