from William Morrow
Price: $13.49

Customer Review:
This book is an interesting look into how the story of Moses and the Exodus played a part in our country's progress. It could of left out the mentioning of Obama and Hillary Clinton.

However in the book the author digs deeper and overall I think the outcome is fine. Again, those... more info

Customer Review:
I loved this. I was on the edge of my seat waiting for something good to happen to poor Oliver. I especially loved the names that Dickens chose for the characters; Mr. Brownlow, Mr. Bumble, Mr. Sowerberry, Mr. Grimwig, Duff and Blathers...they're all perfect. Why did I wait so long to read this... more info
