Craftbooks and Cookbooks are just fine.

I've never heard of that book, but I can't help but think of David Patreus, Allied commander of Iraq at the moment.

The rest of the paragraph and the page go on to describe David Petrakis who is a high school student pointing out to the teacher his abrupt ending of class discussion prematurely due to apparent racist reasons was inappropriate. David then exits the class in protest. The author then mentions now wanting to keep an eye on David. Based on just that page I am intrigued. Might turn out to be just another book about teeenage angst which I am happy enough to have left behind many years ago. Or not...might have to read it to find out ( ... )

I guess I should have actually logged in prior to replying. Ooops.

*giggles at you*

It is about teenage angst, but it's also pretty good.
