fast and fun easy to read and i believe it to be mostly correct for a stay at home mom.

This is a nice little book packed with illustrations and photos, some black and white, some in color. And there is some good information in there too! Small and easy to carry, it doesn't take up much space and shares quite a bit of beautiful fun!

I found this short book easy reading, without being overly condescending. In particular I appreciated the short list of on-line resources.

These little stories are short and get their intended point across quickly. The characters are interesting and cute to look at. This is an easy read for young children to be read to and moderate skill level reading for older children reading on their own. The stories help you think of the creatures in a different light--an apple, worm, mosquito, rattlesnake.

There should be more books like this.  It was a short, fun read with lots of interesting and heartwarming stories from around the globe.  Well-written and concise, it was a great little read that I thoroughly enjoyed.

A small but so sweet book...it makes me laugh when I look at the pictures. I've gotten it for two other people I liked it so much.

An enjoyable little read.  Good for picking up for a few minutes as most chapters are only 2 or 3 pages.  While not all of the cases described in the book deal with Amish families, most do.  A greater sense of a timeline and organization by type of medical issue would have improved this book.

This book is small, reads like a novel, but is interesting.  I read chapter after chapter, in one sitting before forcing myself to put it down.  Now, it does read more like a novel than a self-help/how-to guide, but it did give me a sense of "Yeah, I can do this." As someone who has a very hard time parting with things, it was interesting to see the point of view of someone who didn't have a hard time parting with items.

There were a few parts where the author was reminiscing about her childhood and how she "helped" to clean her parent's house where I was thinking, "Boy, is she a jerk!" - namely because she got rid of things behind people's backs - but on a whole, it was a good book.

I mentioned the book is small, and it is physically a lot smaller than I imagined it would be, but it fits neatly on a shelf without taking up too much space, and perhaps that was the author's intent.

This is a simple, no fuss, book, with a free flowing, poetic style of writing.  You'll probably enjoy reading it. I did. :)

I downloaded this book and read it while I was on a trip. Its a cute little book about a woman unhappy in her marriage. I found the beginning a little slow moving. I did not really get into the book until the second half; however, the end of the book really ties things together nicely. Other than that, it is well written and easy and fun to read. I recommend this book  if you are looking for something light and relaxing to read.

In a very short book (less than 100 pages) a lot of story was covered.  A quick and enjoyable read.

This is an easy to read little book that can be read quickly, but you'll probably want to take a little time to reflect on some of what you've read. I think it would be a nice book to read if you're visiting the country or learning the language. It's the kind of book with short explanations about a lot of topics. It's easy to read a few chapters and then set it aside to read more later. There are sections on harmony, beauty, religion, feelings and relationships and more. I found it to be quite an enjoyable read.

This was a great little read. Enough twists to make it fun and enough problems to make it enjoyable. The main character is caring, young, and has confidence where it is needed.  The end was a little predictable, but the story goes on and that is a good thing, where it can be developed in more depth and detail.

This is a delightful little treat of a story, both well concieved and well written. In a small amount of words, the author does a fantastic job of giving you a sense of the charactor and setting. Truly, my only regret is that it wasn't about a thousand words longer.

Very nice little book, with a very good message. It is well written and nicely illustrated. Good stuff. Check it out!

This is just a sweet, cute, light little piece of fluff that takes bits and pieces from the author's newspaper columns and condenses them in one location. That's perfectly fine with me because Ms. McCarthy has done so with humor and a seemingly genuine respect for the subjects of her various interviews. The book is broken down into a lot of very short chapters, perhaps vignettes is a better term, that look at all sorts of relationship issues....defining the difference between what you think you want in a mate vs what will actually bring true happiness, first date floundering, long term marriages,  how much sex is normal, and much more. I liked this book, but it's not to be mistaken for a "how to fix your marriage" guide...more a peek into the drawing rooms of what other folks' relationships look like at.
