This installment finds everyone’s favorite sport star named reindeer struggling to win a race as well as to help his new friend Ernie, who isn’t a reindeer. There are some comma issues, but the story is sound and entertaining. Importance is giving not only to friendship but also the ability to think. Illustrations match the story quite well.

Book is set up extremely well.

Can people please learn about commas? Thank you.

Tried three times to read this, and each time it doesn't grab me. Sorry book, it's me not you.

Not the best of the series. There is something a bit off, maybe because Lol and Gomer aren't as present. But Rickman does tap into the fear of development and tourism as well as how ghost stories are seen by different people in the same area. That's what makes it a good read. And it's always nice to spend time with Merrily who is one of the best written characters in the world.

Seriously enjoyable.

I enjoy the Norbert books. The characters are well drawn, the humor gentle. It is like a farm version of the Vicar of Dibley. But man Sutherland, why did you have to have that comment about women and gossip? C'mon man.

Auth was a treasure, and it is amazing that still, even after his death (in 2014) that his work is still timely. This collection is good and varied. It is nicely put together and will leave you wish Auth was still alive so he could go after Orange Dust Man.

This little book is basically a guide to the eateries and shops that are housed in the Ferry Building. Nicely illustrated but not much history (understandably so).

It's a bit heavy handed with the message, but it is sweet and the illustrations are nice.

The book isn't bad, but like many of the Herman books, if you have read about the people then there isn't much new here. I found the tone at times very strange, almost dismissive of women.

There are several titles in this series, and as such the various short ebooks tend to become a little repeatitive, with many of the same entries used for the various books.  Still a nice easy read for an armchair traveler.

Crocodile Virgin - alas not a real crocodile or having sex with a crocodile but a crocodile shifter.  It was rather a dull story., and the names didn’t make sense.

Djinni - I do not know why one version of the title is a woman depicted as an elven form of Venus but there you go. Also why Niki as her name? And considering where the tale takes place would the angel’s name be Hugh

This is a cute book if you have a child who likes dinosaurs.

So my friend who lived in this area of Cal and went to school there, says, and I quote, "these are not secret!".  

So there you go.

Also apparently some art work had once been covered up because it was done by a German.
