Ticket Crystals - Bardo Pond

On The Pond.

Advantages: Great format and illustrations.
Disadvantages: Too short

♦♦♦ Content and Format ♦♦♦ This is aimed at very young, pre-school / nursery age children, given that it is board book format - a firm favourite as little hands can turn the pages themselves without accidentally damaging the pages. The concept is based on 'little windows', beginning with the front cover. There is a rectangular shaped section cut out of the front cover and indeed each page, with a transparent window placed in this section. On each 'window' there is a picture, almost like a 'transfer' of the duck, her ducklings and some of the animals that they meet on their journey. The front cover invites the reader to ??.'Follow the fluffy ducklings?.. On the pond'. The three ducklings waddle down to the pond, informing their mother that they are off to explore?. On their journey they ...

Review of On The Pond (Little Windows) - Dawn Sirett

Crystal

Advantages: Good story, one of five books
Disadvantages: Not actually V.C

V.C.Andrews is a very famous author known primarily for her books The 'Dollanganger Family' one of which is titled flowers in the attic. Most of the books under her name come in fives. Four separate stories which somehow wind together to create a fifth. Crystal is no exception and it is the second instalment to the 'Orphans Miniseries'. The others are known as Butterfly, Brooke, Raven and finally Runaways. Now before I go further I have to break a few hearts. Even though V.C.Andrew is famous for many a book she has personally penned few herself. She did write the whole Dollanganger family series just as she wrote half the Casteel family series and My Sweet Audrina. Apart from this the only thing she contributed was her notes on the idea of a book. A ghost writer fills in her shoes and writes her ideas under her name. He is called ...

Review of Crystal - Virginia Andrews

Ponds...

Advantages: Light easily absorbed cream
Disadvantages: May not be creamy enough for really dry skin

Ponds Day Cream As far as moisturizer is concerned it's another product to which I have absolutely no brand loyalty; I must have incredibly tough skin because nothing seems to irritate it! So, I decided to try this one out because I needed moisturizer, and it was "there". PRODUCT AND PACKAGING The cream comes in a tub with a screw on/off lid, which I like as I can get to the last bits of cream. The cream itself is a white, lightly perfumed cream which is not especially thick, and which is absorbed easily by the skin. It appears to be non greasy; I say this because I am not left with a layer of cream on my face, but rather, the cream rub easily into my skin without a trace. A real plus is that the cream is SPF6 and includes UVA and UVB filters, so it does provide some sun protection, although I wouldn't advocate using it ...
