Recording Picture Frame Capture the Sights and Sounds of Precious Memories Larger Picture How many times have you wanted to give a friend or relative a special photograph - then stopped short, realizing they wouldn't be able to see it? Haven't you wished there were a multimedia way the two of you could cherish life's golden moments together, like the arrival of a new baby, an unforgettable birthday or grad party, your son or daughter's wedding vows, or just a fun day at the beach? Well, now there is, and blind people will finally enjoy "looking at pictures" as much as anybody else! This next-generation photo frame combines the elegance of an old-fashioned natural wood finish with a high-tech digital memory chip (which is safely out of sight, by the way). The picture frame holds a standard-sized 3" x 5" or 4" x 6" photo, which you insert by simply removing the back of the unit. Once the picture is in place (or any other time for that matter), just press and hold the button on the back... See less

Talking Medical Thermometer Takes Your Temperature in Seconds - Reads it Aloud Larger Picture This talking clinical thermometer makes temperature-taking fun and easy for kids and adults.

The thermometer is intended for oral or underarm use, and announces and displays your temperature in degrees Fahrenheit. Yes, the unit is FDA-approved for the United... See less

Ah, mice. Give them an inch and they'll take a mile. Laura Numeroff and illustrator Felicia Bond, creators of the bestselling picture books If You Give a Mouse a Cookie and If You Take a Mouse to the Movies, are back with If You Take a Mouse to School. As you might imagine, there are great risks in bringing your mouse to school. For starters, he'll ask you for your lunchbox. And then a sandwich. And a snack for later. Still not satisfied, he'll want to participate in everything from math to soccer. Children and adults alike will revel in the hilarious, very cute illustrations of the mouse in the classroom: hanging from the top corner of the blackboard to spell (aptly enough) "precocious" and "adrenaline," writing "'Goodnight Mouse' by Mouse," sitting inside the boy's open backpack playing with a yo-yo, etc. This book is more episodic in nature than the truly cause-and-effect formula of the previous books: "If you give a pig a pancake, she'll want some syrup to go with it."...

Welcome to the hilariously hypothetical world of Laura Numeroff and Felicia Bond. Everything has an impact on everything else in this world, so if you take a mouse to the movies, don't be surprised if you find yourself being run ragged by the exuberant little fellow's increasingly grand appetites. When we first met him in Numeroff and Bond's tremendously popular If You Give a Mouse a Cookie, he had more energy than a 2-year-old on lollipops. Now, in the excitement of the Christmas season, he's unstoppable. Going from movie theater to Christmas tree lot to the neighbor's yard for snowmouse-building, he's a very demanding mouse indeed--in only the best way, of course. The freshness of the If You Give a... series is diminished only slightly as the sequels pile up. The dazed and earnest look on the face of the mouse's long-suffering friend makes a marvelous foil for the mouse's high-spirited expressions. Adult readers will chuckle as they recognize the ephemeral passions of a... See less

Following her previous New York Times bestsellers, Dr.Laura Schlessinger, the conscience of talk radio, now addresses an issue near and dear to her heart: the stupid things parents do to mess up their children. Never one to shy away from tough truths, Dr. Laura marshals compelling evidence for the widespread neglect of America's children and convincingly condemns the numerous rationalizations to excuse it. These are just a few of her hard-hitting points:Don't Have Them If You Won't Raise Them: "The cavalier manner in which our society treats child care, not as a matter of intimacy and love, but as a matter of convenience and economics, is deeply destructive to our children's sense of attachment, identity, and importance."Dads Need Not Apply: "Single motherhood may be more acceptable to society, but it is not acceptable to children; nor is it in their best interest."Brave New Baby: "In our society, reproductive freedom means anyone can decide to create a life by any means with no, and I...

Ollivier decodes these mysteries and more, exploring the differences in how American and French women view life, food, love, and themselves.
