One of my favorite children's books is Ul de Rico's The Rainbow Goblins. It's a great story about selflessness vs. selfishness and the illustrations are beautifully painted in detailed bold colors.

The best book I've read in many years is "Three Cups of Tea". It is a remarkable book about Pakistan. To bad more of our politicians won't read it and take it to heart.

I agree completely with Jessica. What's more, it's a book that is taken out over and over again by kids, once they discover (or are led to) it.

I meant to add an adults' book comment. I belonged to a book club for 18 years. When we were all ready to move on, for various reasons, we talked about the nearly 200 books we'd read together. We agreed, unanimously, that the one that we most loved, that we'd most re-read as individuals, and that most stuck with us, was Anne Lindbergh's "Gifts From the Sea."
