Excellent Human Interaction

I watched this movie for a college class on group therapy. Thinking it might be boring but trying to stay open minded I watched it. This is an excellent movie, it has humor, believable real-life situations, and drama. This movie really takes an up-close personal look at 28 days of rehabilitation in a way that changes one's perspective. This is a must see for anyone who enjoys a good movie and highly recommended for those individuals taking Psychology courses, Chemical Dependency Courses, or any group therapy related courses. Glad to find it here I checked other movie accounts that I have and only Amazon had this available.
Thank You Amazon!!

This is a very well built model and works as it should. The benefit is one of being a conversation starter for young and old alike. Well done.

We often do Facetime over the Internet with our daughter and granddaughter (age 3). It has always been fun, with her running off to grab something else to show us or us showing her our own things (which she can't possible consider important).

Then we got this puppet. We were chatting with each other when I slowly slipped the dragon up from behind my wife and onto her shoulder. The granddarling stopped mid sentence and stared. "What's that?!!" "That's an aligator!"

"No," we said, "it's Smokey, our new dragon." In all our conversations with her, we have never seen her laugh so hard or as often as when "Smokey" intrudes into the conversation. Sometimes he moves right up to the camera and talks one-on-one, blocking us out. Sometimes he goes away until the granddarling asks for him. And sometimes he rises slowly until only his big, bulging eyes are visible at the bottom of their screen. He never fails to tickle.

We have moved into an age where we can sit back and have high resolution conversations with our grandchildren half a world away. For the very young ones, having such a wonderful visual entermediatary makes for amazing conversations.

I'm here looking for a companion for Smokey.

I would recommend this book to any person who will ever have to interact with another human being at any point in his/her life. Each key point is accompanied by entertaining anecdotal insights into successful interaction with others. While it's written with business professionals in mind, the concepts and practices apply equally to all interpersonal relations. I'm requiring my teenage son to read it before he starts high school next year.

This is the best. Both kids love it. It shows how the friends love and respect one another. Although they are initially frustrated the other one doesn't behave the same at all, through the kind, selfless gifts they extend to each other, they come to see their differences are all for the best and how their personal likes and the activities they choose are wonderfully complementary.

Complex social construct narrated in an emotionally safe manner that is suitable for all ages. It is easily transferable to multiple audiences without much effort. My only concern about the ebook version is that it displayed severed pages on both kindle and ipad devices. Other than that, the ebook was superbly structured, illustrated, and made available to multifarious audiences. Thanks.

The characters and story line are very alive and draw the audience into the story, it's not a dull monotonous plot line. There's always a few angles and perspectives going on at once to keep the viewer busy. The mature content does get out of hand at times.

What a treat!!  Getting to know the diverse people of a small town and making new friends. Worrying
about them, laughing with them and praying with them that they make the correct decisions. Looking forward
to my return visit. Thanks for a wonderful  book, Mrs. Baumbich.

The characters especially OVE were delightful and very clever keeping the reader involved.  The goodness and interaction of neighbors and various age groups was wonderful to experience in a book.  The clever character intermixing such that you could see them and hear them....especially the accents of various nationalities.  There was a whimsy that warmed my heart!

I had the opportunity to share this series with a terminally ill patient in the last stages of life. It's paliative power was remarkable and led to hours of comfortable conversation of the content. I believe it had this wonderful impact because the senses are engaged and the perspective of the reader is expanded to better appreciate and accept the circle of life.

The story is a perfect example of how people can learn to care for and love more than one person at a time. The flow of the book is believable and builds in complexity as needed to make it a work. A solid read.

I picked this up because I it felt like a story which emphasis on realistic people. Just fabulous as I expected, we have a cocktail of characters. I was surprised at the care and detail, author has put in defining and characterization of each person who joins the commune. Everyone just fits in the story and makes the reader get involved in their lives without trailing off.

The story begins with Momo buying an apple farm and hoping to create an idealistic world. We relate with her character, because we try to achieve the same at work or home. It is exasperating when everybody doesn't cooperate and end up with heady mix of caricatures.

What I like best is how the author weaves a simple story between these complex people. The plot seem straight forward, but there is so much more to this little book. The epilogue was sad for some of them, but does sound understandable. The length of the story is good and you can pick this even for a quickie on your ride to work. I really enjoyed this book from start to finish.

I liked the way the young and "older" people engaged with each other, something the young do not often want to do. I liked that the older characters were treated , with respect, as people who still had value and substance whereas in real life, so often older people are kind of invisible. I thought the writing style was clear. The novel was humorous and colorful. A good read.

In this story, a grandmother and grandchild bear share an action-packed and fun-filled day before they cuddle up, settle down, and relax in the shade of a tree. The flow of this story makes it a great bedtime or `let's cuddle up, settle down, and relax' book. Some of the text might be over a young child's head. However, the soothing, rhythmic verse and illustrations make up for any complexity. The movement, body language, and detail in Satomi Ichikawa's illustrations enhance the lovely emotion behind the text. Ichikawa's colorful and tender illustrations convey Maryann Cusimano Love's message completely. The loving and fun connection between grandparent and grandchild shines through on every page.

Many `read-together' books contain text that means more to the adult than to the child. These books often evoke the loving emotion that the adult feels for the child and enhances the sharing experience. The ones with top-notch illustrations and a soothing tone that grabs a child's attention make perfect read-together books. "You Are My Wish" is one of those books. Although, the book is worth purchasing for the illustrations alone, those illustrations would not exist without Maryann Cusimano Love's delightful message.
