"By far the most profound thinker of the 19th century" --Ludwig Wittgenstein "Kierkegaard's great contribution to Western philosophy was to assert, or to reassert with Romantic urgency, that, subjectively speaking, each existence is the center of the universe." --John Updike, The New Yorker Harper Perennial Modern Classics presents the rediscovered spiritual writings of S ren Kierkegaard, edited and translated by Oxford theologian George Pattison. Called "the first modernist" by The Guardian and "the father of existentialism" by the New York Times, Kierkegaard left an indelible imprint on existential writers from Sartre and Camus to Kafka and Derrida. In works like Fear and Trembling, Sickness unto Death, and Either/Or, he by famously articulated that all meaning is rooted in subjective experience--but the devotional essays that Patterson reveals in Spiritual Writings will forever change our understanding of the great philosopher, uncovering the spiritual foundations beneath his secularist philosophy.

Wrong photo for letter B for bulldozer
Format: Hardcover, Format: Hardcover
I love the book but there is an error. The B is for Bulldozer however the picture is of a Front loader. 2 completely different machines that do different things and look different too.

Fun, engaging, educational book for kiddos to learn their ABC’s!
Format: Hardcover
My son absolutely adores this book! We have to read it every night. It’s helping him learn his ABC’s and is fun for him because he loves all of the vehicles and pictures. Thank you for such a beautiful addition to our library at home, and for helping my son get ready for preschool!

My grandson (age 3) is just starting to recognize letters, and of course, he is all about planes, trains, and trucks. That's why I was glad to find this book! He really likes looking at each picture and telling me what it is. The pages are made with high quality, thick paper, so it should hold up well. The book says, "All illustrations for this book were hand-drawn in color pencil by Michael Kracht through inspiration from his children in heaven." And you can feel the love in every one.

The sweetest, and simplest way to familiarize toddlers with ABCs
Format: Hardcover
I think people need to get over that the title says boys and enjoy the book for what it really does. I bought this for a boy (uh oh, I said boy) I nanny, who was a year and a half when I bought it. First of all, he’s obsessed with airplanes (his sister is not) which was my first reason for purchasing. I keep the book out of sight because he will rip the pages, but when I take it out it becomes a special moment to sit and read this book together. We go through each page, and I ask a series of questions: “what do you see?” Sometimes he knows (I.e. airplane) and sometimes he doesn’t, but he learns the names of the pictures slowly but surely. I also ask “where is H?” “Where is I?” And he’ll point. There’s a 50/50 chance to get it right as each letter takes up one full page so I feel like this helps build his confidence. Lastly, he loves when I take his pointer finger and slowly sing through the list of ABCs on the last page. Then, we read the book at least two more times! His language and knowledge of the alphabet has improved so much with the help of this sweet book.
