Such a great book. Michelle was diagnosed with a brain tumor...instead of feeling sorry for herself, she and her husband, Ed, embarked on a voyage around the globe for 105 days. Each page in the book is written like a journal entry of their travels and life aboard the ship. There are photos on each page, along with the coordinates for that particular day and a quote. There are several layers to this book/story - (1) the travelogue; (2) Michelle's diagnosis and treatment(s); and (3) the treasure hunt. I have not yet embarked on deciphering the treasure hunt as I've already loaned the book out to someone else to read. While reading the book, I felt like I was there with them in every port of call and through the ship's daily activities, including fighting for the ability to do laundry! I highly recommend this book to everyone.

With Christmas fast approaching I realised that we don't own a copy of The Night Before Christmas. Therefore I began my hunt for a copy that my three year old would enjoy. I wanted something with vivid color and interaction. The pages are very busy and there is something new to see each time we open the pages. The traditional poem has always been one of my favorites. The illustrations add life to the words. My son loves it and keeps asking to "Read Santa!" and he goes around saying "Dash away! Dash away!" If you too are on the hunt for The Night Before Christmas, I recommend this copy. Eventually I would like a classic hard copy of this poem to own, but this year I am settling for a digital copy of this version that I found through our local library. May your season be filled with Christmas cheer!

Good sequel
More of the same in this big budget sequel. Most of the original cast return for the 2nd outing. This time they set out looking for the lost city of gold. The action takes place over America, to Paris and London as well. If you liked the first or treasure hunt films you'll love this. There may well be a 3rd?
