Review # 1 was written on 2016-03-30 00:00:00 Herbert Bell   A quick read packed with facts. This is a nice little book for inquisitive kids, especially those interested in science and nature. There are a lot of cool facts in this book, many focusing on animals. It is written in a simple way, making it fairly easy for young readers to understand. A fun read. Even I as an adult learned a thing or two from this book.

Review # 2 was written on 2016-07-09 00:00:00 Robert Rob I'm continuing my recaps of early Dozois anthols, since I was reminded of one of my highlights this afternoon. Anyway, there are some great and near-great stories here. My highlights, by memory: • Dafydd ab Hugh, "The Coon Rolled Down and Ruptured His Larinks, A Squeezed Novel, by Mr. Skunk." I was reminded of this amazing story by reading George Saunder's mediocre (at best) "Fox 8." This is the story he was trying to write. 5+ stars! More: • The Hemingway Hoax, novella by Joe Haldeman. Won both the Hugo and Nebula awards in 1991. His masterpiece, I think. 5+ stars! My full review: • "We See Things Differently" by Bruce Sterling. An amazingly prescient story of the then-upcoming clash between political Islam and the West, in what is now an alternate history. One of Sterling's best early stories, 5 stars. • Bears Discover Fire • short story by Terry Bisson. Won the Hugo, Nebula, Locus, Sturgeon and other awards. 5 stars. ICYMI: And lots more Good Stuff after my four faves. OK, I see a couple of clunkers too. See (scroll down) and -- for memory-aids and details. Plus -- my favorite cover-art for the series! This Michaael Whelan beauty: Links: Learning To Be Me by Greg Egan. Implanted "jewel' for indefinite longevity. 3.8 *, I'll add more links, if I get the energy to look for them & if I find more.
