When Man Flu Hits

Advantages: Shows children the importance of resting when they are unwell
Disadvantages: none

***Background*** Jane Yolen writes many different types of books including science fiction and fantasy. She also writes books for children and this is one in her series of rhyming Dinosaur books that we found. Mark Teague illustrates his own picture books as well as being responsible for all the artwork in this series of books. ***The Story*** "What if a dinosaur catches the flu? Does he whimper and whine in between each Atchoo?" As we go through the book we see pictures of different sick dinosaurs all doing lots of horrible things that won't help them get any better, until we are told, "No?." We are then shown that dinosaurs do as the doctors tell them, get lots of rest and take their medicine without a fuss. The story ends with?. "He closes his eyes. He whispers good night.

Review of How Do Dinosaurs Get Well Soon? - Jane Yolen

Well and truly against the ropes

Advantages: Meg Ryan...
Disadvantages: Paying for it...

This is a boxing film but a bit more than just boxing, it is also about a lady called Jackie Kallen who was the first female boxing manager. It is inspired by her story not actually her story. It starts off in 1972 with Jackie as a child in her dads gym watching her uncle ray-ray spar, she gets on very well with her uncle and when he asks her what she is going to do when she gets older the reply is "kick butt and break hearts" uncle ray-ray tells Jackie "that the world is an oyster and she is a pearl" I mention this as the film has a lot of one liners.

We got the Dell insperon as a replacement for our trusty old Toshiba laptop we did want a red dell studio but budgetary reality kicked in and we went for this insperon 1545, here's my review for it. Laptop specifications improve all the time, so I wont go on to much about the spec and concentrate more on the laptop as a whole. Now if your new to laptops or computers in general i`ll give you a bit of buying advice. If you want to buy a dell laptop from there website DON'T buy the cheapest £299 model it`s a false economy, there isn't enough memory (just 1GB of ram) witch will mean that it wont be as quick as it could be moreover you will find that it will get slower as you start to fill it up with apps. ALWAYS buy the next model up if you are after a cheap laptop as you get a lot more for your money (as well as sufficient memory). build ...
