5-0 out of 5 stars Simply beautiful
I purchased this for my granddaughter, and I know it will be a family keepsake.It is the most beautiful book, with sentiments I share with my granddaughter and will share with the others to come.

5-0 out of 5 stars Great For Storytime
This beautiful collection of poetry selected and edited by actress Julie Andrews and her daughter Emma Walton Hamilton is a great book to have around for bedtime reading. The variety and selection is impressive, with poems and lyrics by A.E. Housman, William Wordsworth, Edith Nesbit, Rodgers & Hammerstein, John Updike, Charles Dickens, Shakespeare, Emily Dickinson, Victor Hugo, Robert Frost, Robert Louis Stevenson, A.A. Milne, Shel Silverstein, William Blake, Ogden Nash, and many others. Also included are works by both of the editors, and some favorite poems by members of their family, adding a personal touch to the collection.

James McMullan's vivid watercolors bring the words to life and add to the charm of the book, with illustrations on just about every page.

The book also comes with an audio CD of Julie Andrews and Emma Walton Hamilton introducing and performing 23 selections from the book.

Some of my personal favorites featured in the book were the very amusing "I Met A Rat of Culture" by Jack Prelutsky, Nikki Grimes' wonderfully empowering "A the Library", and Tennyson's powerful "The Brook".

The collection is organized into themed chapters that focus on appreciation for nature, growing up, optimism, the arts, and love for life. I spent several weeks reading a poem or two aloud to my two-year-old as part of our bedtime story routine, and I found the tone and variety of the poems kept my interest while the sounds of the words were enjoyable to my son. This is a great book to read cover to cover or for just the occasional selection, and it's a good one to have on hand for introducing a child to poetry and reading aloud.

Editorial Review

Product Description
International expositions, with their massive assembling of exhibits and audiences, were the media events of their time. In transmitting a new culture of visibility that merged information, entertainment, and commerce, they provided a unique opportunity for the public to become aware of various social and technological advances. With Health and Medicine on Display, Julie Brown offers the first book-length examination of how international expositions, through their exhibits and infrastructures, sought to demonstrate innovations in applied health and medical practice. Brown investigates not only how exhibits translated health and medical information into visual form but also how exposition sites in urban settings (an exposition was "a city within a city" sometimes in conflict with municipal authorities) provided emergency medical treatment, access to safe water, and protection against infectious diseases.

Brown looks at four expositions held in Philadelphia, Chicago, Buffalo, and St. Louis between 1876 and 1904, spanning the Gilded Age and the early reform years of the Progressive Era. She describes the 1904 St. Louis exposition in particular detail, looking closely at the sites and services as well as selected exhibits (including working model playground, live X-ray demonstrations, and a rescue film by the U.S. Navy). Many carefully researched illustrations, most never before published (with supplementary images available on the MIT Press website), vividly demonstrate the role that these exhibitions played in framing and shaping health issues for their audiences. ...

Product Description
Julie & Julia, the bestselling memoir that's "irresistible....A kind of Bridget Jones meets The French Chef" (Philadelphia Inquirer), is now a major motion picture.Julie Powell, nearing thirty and trapped in a dead-end secretarial job, resolves to reclaim her life by cooking in the span of a single year, every one of the 524 recipes in Julia Child's legendary Mastering the Art of French Cooking. Her unexpected reward: not just a newfound respect for calves' livers and aspic, but a new life-lived with gusto.The film is written and directed by Nora Ephron and stars Amy Adams as Julie and Meryl Streep as Julia.Amazon.com Review
Julie & Julia is the story of Julie Powell's attempt to revitalize her marriage, restore her ambition, and save her soul by cooking all 524 recipes in Julia Child's Mastering the Art of French Cooking, Volume I, in a period of 365 days.The result is a masterful medley of Bridget Jones' Diary meets Like Water for Chocolate, mixed with a healthy dose of original wit, warmth, and inspiration that sets this memoir apart from most tales of personal redemption.

When we first meet Julie, she's a frustrated temp-to-perm secretary who slaves away at a thankless job, only to return to an equally demoralizing apartment in the outer boroughs of Manhattan each evening. At the urging of Eric, her devoted and slightly geeky husband, she decides to start a blog that will chronicle what she dubs the "Julie/Julia Project." What follows is a year of butter-drenched meals that will both necessitate the wearing of an unbearably uncomfortable girdle on the hottest night of the year, as well as the realization that life is what you make of it and joy is not as impossible a quest as it may seem, even when it's -10 degrees out and your pipes are frozen.

Powell is a natural when it comes to connecting with her readers, which is probably why her blog generated so much buzz, both from readers and media alike. And while her self-deprecating sense of humor can sometimes dissolve into whininess, she never really loses her edge, or her sense of purpose. Even on day 365, she's working her way through Mayonnaise Collee and ending the evening "back exactly where we started--just Eric and me, three cats and Buffy...sitting on a couch in the outer boroughs, eating, with Julia chortling alongside us...."

Inspired and encouraging, Julie and Julia is a unique opportunity to join one woman's attempt to change her life, and have a laugh, or ten, along the way. --Gisele Toueg ... Read more

5-0 out of 5 stars If You Really Want To Read About Julia by Julia, Check Out. . .
"My Life in France," Julia Childs' memoir about her time in France and Germany after the end of World War II.
While the film "Julie and Julia" covered this era quite well, but the book is well worth reading in that it better conveys the wit, charm and doggedness (her life at that time was not without its frustrations and setbacks) that exemplified Childs.

1-0 out of 5 stars Movie better than the Book
I have to say for the first time in my life the movie is way better than the book, it is totally disjointed and full of unnecesary profanity. The author comes across as very immature and a total whiner. Don't bother buying it, the movie is much more enjoyable.

5-0 out of 5 stars The book is not the movie - get over it
So I am really dismayed to see how many people watched the movie, and then read the book and gave it a bad review. Seriously? Did these people wake up yesterday and have no way of realizing that movies made from books are rarely exact matches and, in fact, each really needs to be taken as a separate thing? Did they think they had woken up in alternate book-and-movie-twin universe? Did they possibly not realize, despite the fact that the movie is about writing it, that there is an entire huge available BLOG they could have spent seconds going to and previewing Julie Powell's writing style before buying the book and whining about how it's not like the movie in utterly useless Amazon reviews? No? Really? REALLY?

Diatribe aside, I have not seen the movie, and did not intend to see the movie until I'd read the book and put it aside for at least a good three or four months. So now that I've read the book, I'll probably catch the movie on cable sometime next year. Because I don't want the experience of reading the book to taint my enjoyment of the movie (HINT!), and because honestly something about Meryl's Streep's performance in the previews annoys me. Personally, I found the book completely charming. Julie sounds very much like someone who I could be friends with. And I appreciate that even though she decided to step onto a world stage (the internet is a world stage, even if no one is looking in your direction), she did it as herself. Sometimes strong, sometimes full of self-pity, sometimes over expletive-laden in her choice of expression, sometimes stupid in her choice of footwear, always very real and often charmingly witty, she is always herself.

This book is written by a real person, about her real life. It is amusing, and painful, and has some honest introspective discussion that certainly makes ME think about some of the food choices I make. And some of the life choices I make. It has also done a great job of rousing my interest in French cooking. Do I want to do what she sets out to do? Hell no? Do I want to make that one recipe with the breadcrumb encrusted liver? Awfully much. This book is NOT the cute PG-13 version of Julie, interwoven with Julia Child's own story. This book is the R-rated, sometimes even X-rated real life version of Julie, the real Julie, with a teeny bit of Julia Child for purposes of clarifying references. Let me say it again, this book is JULIE'S story as told by JULIE. If you want a cutsy Amy Adams version of Julie, watch the movie again. If you want to know more about Julia Childs, read a book about Julia Childs. If you are interested in what really happened to Julie in this year that she took on this amazing challenge, well, this would be a place to start. Did she sound whiny? Sometimes yes. But I think anyone who's ever worked a fulltime job and taken on a big project at home at the same time can kind of sympathize with that. I know I can.

On a side note, I read that Julia Child said that if Julie had trouble with the recipes, Julie must not be much of a cook. It kind of makes me wonder what universe Julia Child lives in, because just about any professional chef will tell you that classical French cooking, the kind Julia Child is all about, is one of the more difficult cuisines to master. And saying that about someone who basically revived her pretty mediocre cookbook after years of obscurity, makes Julia Child sound like kind of a self-involved bitch. Which from what I've read, she apparently was, at least in her later life.

5-0 out of 5 stars Movie? Good. Book? Grand.
I read this book just recently, a year or more after the rest of the world, but this is what I discovered: It's worth five stars for its vocabulary alone, and I'm not talking about her frequent use of the f-word! Julie Powell has an incredible way with sesquipedalian words so her prose is somehow casual and sophisticated at the same time. I want to hang out with Julie for a day, shopping and exchanging witty comments and drinking gin.

I saw the movie before reading the book and while the movie is well-done and fairly loyal to the book's storyline and general spirit, the book outshines the movie ten to one. I'm going to have to buy more bookshelves if I keep reading books like this. Enjoy!

1-0 out of 5 stars Watch the movie instead
The movie was pretty good.The book left me feeling violated, like I needed a hot shower with a strong soap. I don't blame Julia Child for the way she felt.Had I been Julia, I would have sued to keep my good name from being connected with this piece of work. ... Read more

I'm a 4th grade teacher and bought this book for my classlibrary. Boys as well as girls fight over who gets to take ithome... only Harry Potter got that much attention before. Now they'rebuying their own copies. The children know the book is written for them -- it's clear and funny and thinks like a kid. The recipes are easy to make and actually have nutritional value. I like that it encourages children to be safe and clean up when they're done. This is a smart, fun, well thought-out cookbook. Good work!

Product Description
This contributory volume, the first book of its kind, provides a snapshot of the ways in which discourse about Western music and race overlapped and became intertwined during the period from Wagner's death to the rise of National Socialism and fascism elsewhere in Europe. At these two framing moments such overlapping was at its most explicit: Wagner's racially inflected 'regeneration theories' were at one end and institutionalised cultural racism at the other. The book seeks to provide insights into the key national contexts in which such discourses circulated in the interim period, as well as to reflect a range of archival, historical, critical, and philosophical approaches to the topic. National contexts covered include Germay, France, Spain, Italy, Great Britain and North America. The contributors to the volume are leading scholars in the field, and the book contains many illustrative music examples and images which bring the subject matter to life. ... Read more

Editorial Review

Product Description
The grotesque is one of art's most puzzling figures - transgressive, comprising an unresolvable hybrid, generally focussing on the human body, full of hyperbole, and ultimately semantically deeply puzzling. In "Bluebeard's Castle" (1911), "The Wooden Prince" (1916/17), "The Miraculous Mandarin" (1919/24, rev. 1931) and "Cantata Profana" (1930), Bartok engaged scenarios featuring either overtly grotesque bodies or closely related transformations and violations of the body. In a number of instrumental works he also overtly engaged grotesque satirical strategies, sometimes - as in "Two Portraits: 'Ideal' and 'Grotesque'" - indicating this in the title.In this book, Julie Brown argues that Bartok's concerns with stylistic hybridity (high-low, East-West, tonalatonal-modal), the body, and the grotesque are inter-connected. While Bartok developed each interest in highly individual ways, and did so separately to a considerable extent, the three concerns remained conceptually interlinked. All three were throughly implicated in cultural constructions of the Modern during the period in which Bartok was composing. ... Read more
