About the Book

Want the purrr-fect gift for the cat lover in your life? Cat got your tongue? Never mind, the A to Z book of Cats will say it all for you. It’s the cat’s meow. Not only have cats found a place in our hearts and homes, but they are also part of our history, culture, and arts. This book with illustrations by the author, while it’s not cat-a-clysmic, will appeal to all ailurophiles, (that’s cat lovers). Failure to purchase this book would not be a cat-a-strophe and I certainly won’t go cat-a-tonic but, if you do, I predict you will find yourself sitting in the catbird’s seat wearing the cat’s pajamas!

The dictionary is loaded with an extremely rich trove of past-used and present-day words, phrases, and, where possible, appropriate short sentences for illustration. The extensive compilation of the Vietnamese lexicon, which reveals the author's thorough investigation of its etymology, development, and diverse usage, is enhanced by a supply of well-chosen English equivalents and, when necessary, an excellent rendering by the author of the Vietnamese expression into its English counterpart. Given the dearth in reference materials in Vietnamese and English languages as well as English speakers' increasing interest in learning Vietnamese language and culture on the one hand and Vietnamese speakers' need to improve their English skills on the other, this dictionary should appeal to a variety of audiences including researchers, specialists, professionals, students, and lay people.

Nancy has written a very accessible book for those people who want to know more about remote viewing from a civilian stand point. She is a pivotal person who helped and inspired me to explore more within the world of remote viewing. Her book shares solid resources for those people who want to explore further, plus her own experiences and transcripts. It is one of those books that was very easy to finish with solid information towards additional sources if one would like further expansion on the subject.

"The Painting” is a work of art in itself. Gifted author Kathleen Shields, paints a colorful canvas of words in this creative and magical story. I enjoyed relating to the characters, they captured my attention throughout the book. The added dimension of Gerald’s painting sparked my imagination into a dream escape, making the story come alive. Much to my delight, that wasn’t the end of the story. I encourage you to find out what’s missing in Gerald’s perfect painting too. It may shine some light into your own life. I highly recommend this book and I’m looking forward to “The Painting 2,” the next book!
