5-0 out of 5 stars You need to be Up Close
Big book!I bought this for my shiftless but talented cousin but read it cover-to-cover before mailing it to him. Close's work is fantastic.

5-0 out of 5 stars Truly amazing
While at the MoMA I happened across the Chuck Close exhibit. I had heard of him, but had never seen his work. As I walked through the exhibit I thought to myself, "big deal, a bunch of 9 foot tall photographs." But when I notice the medium was acrylic I was astonded! This book captures the unbelievable talent of this amazing artist. It shows his the vast array of materials he used from paint, to pieces of paper. i would highly recommend buying this book! It is one of my favorites.

5-0 out of 5 stars A retrospective of work by one of America's premier artists.
While in Chicago in the Summer of 1998, I happened across an astounding exhibition of work chronicling the life's work of Chuck Close at the Museum of Contemporary Art. This book is a catalogue of the traveling exhibitionthat is no less astounding and amazing.Chuck Close is an amazing humanwho focuses on portraits of human heads and most are executed on a grandscale. The book will take you through his life, via his work,chronologically. Not to be missed are the portraits, done in watercolor,that while inches away from the work, I could not tell it wasn't aphotograph. The best thing about the book is that it catalogues every piecein the retrospective and is formatted in a scale that conveys the grandnessof the paintings. It is a truly amazing and intriguing body of work that isnot to be missed. ... Read more

3-0 out of 5 stars Half good, half not
We've been listening to this CD set for the last year or so on car trips.The stories run a little long for average school commutes and errands around town.My 3-year-old and 6-year-old really enjoy "The Talking Eggs" and "Thumbelina" (the 3-year-old less so than the 6-year-old).But ALL of us think that "The Fisherman and His Wife" and "The Emperor and the Nightingale" are not worth the time or effort to listen to.My children get bored with them.My husband and I think that these latter two stories are way too long, don't flow well as stories, and have plots and characters that just aren't that sympathetic.But Sissy Spacek's narration of "The Talking Eggs" and the story itself are really engaging and fun to listen to.

5-0 out of 5 stars Rabbit Ears' version of everyone's favorite fairy tales!
When I was small, I remember I always used to listen to Rabbit Ears CDs all the time.This audio cd is certainly no exception, as it contains fairy tales that I have grew up with for a long time.Each story is tender and subtle that makes the cd very relaxing to listen to.Probably my favorite stories from this audio cd would have to be "The Emperor and the Nightingale" and "The Talking Eggs."If you enjoy this audio cd, I would recommend listening to the other audio cds from the Rabbit Ears Treasury.

5-0 out of 5 stars Rabbit Ears Treasury of Fairy Tales
When our children were little, every Friday evening on NPR radio, Rabbit Ears would share these treasures. The stories are excellent with movie stars reading the story and famous musicians doing the music. It is exciting to have these now on cd's! I love the Talking Eggs!

5-0 out of 5 stars Just what I was looking for
My 3.5 year old son is ready to give up nap, but I wasn't ready to give up my afternoon quiet time. This was the perfect solution. I put one of these CDs in and he lays down and listens. There is nice music throughout and the storytellers all have very pleasant voices. There are 2 CDs in this set, each with over an hour of storytelling. He likes them so much that he frequently gets up after the first CD is over and asks for the other one, so I get 2 hours of quiet and he gets the rest he still needs to get through his day. I will definitely be getting the other CDs in this series. ... Read more

Excerpt: Angela Brigid Lansbury, CBE (born 16 October 1925) is an English actress and singer whose career has spanned eight decades. Her first film appearance was in Gaslight (1944) as Ingrid Bergman's conniving maid, for which she received her first Academy Award nomination. Among her other films are The Manchurian Candidate (1962), Bedknobs and Broomsticks (1971) and Beauty and the Beast (1991). She expanded her repertoire to Broadway and television in the 1950s, and she was successful in Broadway productions of Mame, Gypsy (revival), and Sweeney Todd.

She most recently appeared on Broadway in a revival of Blithe Spirit as Madame Arcati, for which she won her fifth Tony at the age of 83, tying her with Julie Harris's record for most Tony wins. Lansbury has been appearing since December 2009 in a well-received revival of Stephen Sondheim's A Little Night Music as Madame Armfeldt (for which she has been nominated for a Tony as well).

From the supplier: Francois Girard's $1.8 million movie succeeds brilliantly in bringing alive one of Canada's greatest musical talents. With co-writer Don McKellar, actor Colm Feore, and cinematographer Alain Dostie, Girard evokes Gould's coldness, problems, and total devotion to his art.

Product Description
When Washington Irving first published this collection of essays, sketches, and tales--originally entitled The Sketch Book of Geoffrey Crayon, Gent.--readers greeted it with enthusiasm, and Irving emerged as America's first successful professional author.

"The Legend of Sleepy Hollow" and "Rip Van Winkle," two of America's most recognizable and loved works of fiction, display Irving's ability to depict American landscapes and culture so vividly that readers feel themselves a part of them. And it is on the basis of these two classic tales that Irving is generally credited with inventing the short story as a distinct literary genre. This volume also contains gently ironic pieces about life in England that reflect the author's interest in the traditions of the Old World and his longings for his home in the New. ... Read more

5-0 out of 5 stars The Legend of Sleepy Hollow
ISBN 0824985745 - Printed and bound in Mexico (boo hiss to Ideal Publishing in Nashville, Tennessee, for that decision - the US can print and bind, too!). Amazon says this book is for ages 4 to 8. I'll disagree, in a small way. This book is for your child when you think your child is old enough for it - and that will be so individual that suggested ages are irrelevant. If I had to choose an appropriate age group, myself, I'd think 8 to 12.

Before I get to my review, I'd like to ask Amazon review readers to notice the line above each review, where it says "This review is from:". Click the book title next to a few different ones and you'll see that they lead back to different editions. Amazon has this somewhat annoying habit of lumping reviews together when they're not really for the same book at all. In kids' books, especially, this matters, since illustrations are a huge portion of the package and the quality can vary so much. Remember to keep that in mind! On with the review.

Ichabod Crane, a schoolmaster, came to teach in Tarry Town, a place that happened to have a local legend about a headless horseman who haunted the nearby woods. Ichabod, moving from one family's home to another on a weekly basis, passed through those woods frequently, spooking himself with memories of the tales. Tired of his slightly vagabond-like life, Crane decides to win the hand of a local young lady, putting himself in place to inherit her family land and a stable home of his own, finally. With his heart set on Katrina, he is challenged at every turn by the very strong Brom Bones, and on the night when Ichabod finally speaks up about his feelings, only to have his hopes dashed, a scary and suspicious appearance of The Headless Horseman occurs - and Crane disappears forever!

The text is framed by the outline of spooky, leafless trees in colors that match the color of the illustration on the facing page. Those images are large, bold and match the mood of the text superbly. For the classic American folk tale by Washington Irving, alone, I'd give it five stars, but when you add in the absolutely wonderful illustrations by Russ Flint, this is one edition of this book that is staying on my keeper shelf for good. The adaptation is good, not flawless, and the person who did the adaptation isn't named anywhere on the book that I could see.

5-0 out of 5 stars Great Book! Must read!
This book is a must read! I thought it was a great book. It has two stories, The Legend of Sleepy Hollow and Rip Van Winkle. They were both great stories that were scary.

In The Legend of Sleepy Hollow, a school teacher who teaches in a junky schoolhouse. One day, a woman came in that was his age. He liked her in seconds. The problem is that other people like her, too. He has to fight his way to her. One night, they danced and they were happy. That night, he heard noise he thought someone was there. Instead, the headless horse-man appeared and he was running for his life to his horse.

In Rip Van Winkle, It's about a guy who does jobs for people that don't want to do it for their wifes. One day, he was in the forest and he met a guy and he showed him a secret bowling team. Rip drunk and drunk intil he passed out. When he woke up, it was ten years later!

To find out what happens, go read this book please! I'm not going to tell the ending if you want to know the ending for both, go read this book. Go get from a library or go buy it.

5-0 out of 5 stars Excellent
Of course the story is a great one, but the illustrations in this book are just beautiful. Very well done and my granddaughters love looking through it.

5-0 out of 5 stars The Legend of Sleepy Hollow
Small book but it still packs a punch about the classic tale about the Headless Horseman.It's basically word for word of the Disney version that you've seen on tv.Makes for nice reading.
