This book brought to life very engaging characters.  Without thinking about it, I looked forward to each chapter and found myself imagining what might occur in the next.  If your own life brings along worries, this is one place, through reading, that i/

This is a really lovely coffee table style book loaded with suggestions of unusual suggestions of things you might want to do during your lifetime.  It ranges from buying a pair of cowboy boots to finishing a marathon to becoming a world champion (of something.)

The photography and printing in this book is excellent.  Glancing through the pages, reading here and there, is a wonderful way to spend an rainy afternoon.  It is a wonderful idea for a gift for the truly adventurous or for those who may only go on adventures by way of books.

This is a very delightful book which provides for light entertaining reading.  One marvels at the imagination of the author that she can place the dog in so many different and interesting situations. One can travel the world with this dog. And especially her travel to New York, one of my favourite cities in the world.  This was well worth the read to pass the time. Thumbs up for the imagination.

I enjoy reading history, and love it when I can read it from a human perspective. This book not only informs; it takes its reader back to the middle ages. It engaged me entirely in the daily life of a common woman and rewarded me with a fresh perspective on my favorite period.

This is a most enjoyable book. Vinciguerra has brilliantly captured the feeling of the era in New York City and of the characters and life at the New Yorker. It is extensively researched and yet is easy and delightful reading. He has captured a piece of history while there were still enough people to tell him about it first hand.

I like reading before bed to escape the everyday and this book definitely takes me somewhere else. The people are interesting yet real. The plot twists are unexpected yet so believable. The world is exciting and unknown but feels familiar. It is the perfect story to immerse myself in, then spend the next morning rehashing over breakfast because I want to consider the characters, politics, plot, social world... Lots of interesting ideas to talk through!

Some of the most interesting reads I pick up come about because of the reading challenges I undertake. This was one of them. The author was a wildlife filmmaker for Disney and a lecturer for the Audubon Society. Constantly in search of wildlife for the Lassie series, he filmed many animals which were appropriate for a children's series including otters, prairie dogs and wild cats. In addition, he includes episodes from his personal life that include birds such as owls, ravens and red tailed hawks as well as experience filming special environmental areas. It's fascinating reading and one of the most entertaining reads I've had in some time.
