Dave Barry’s Money Secrets by Dave Barry: Dave Barry’s Money Secrets is one of those books that makes you laugh out loud and then read that passage to whomever is with you, and then give them the book to read when you’re done. Even though Dave Barry has retired from writing his weekly newspaper column, it’s obvious his skill at writing humor still runs strongly within him. I can continue quoting humorous passages from the book, but do yourself a favor instead, and get your own copy.
The Boy on the Bus by Deborah Schupack: What is frustrating is that this novel was full of potential, and Deborah Schupack demonstrates an obvious literary talent. Yet I finished the book very dissatisfied with it. Not only has Meg not learned anything new, but neither had I.
Book4U is an idea that originated in Australia; at its simplest best, it is a web-based application that gives teachers the ability to print their students’ books. The application allows the printing of a vast assortment of books such as class books, graduation books, project books and yearbooks. The Book4U service allows these books to be printed directly from the Internet interface, without needing any software download. It is possible to tweak the book in several ways so that the finished product is just according to the wishes of the teachers and the students.
