King Bartholomew and the Jester’s Riddle - Review

King Bartholomew and the Jester’s Riddle by Pina
Mastromonaco is a wonderful, fun book with a humor level
perfect for children aged four to eight. Entertaining riddles
entice readers to try to guess the answer while enjoying the
tale.

Childlike King Bartholomew is obsessed with toys and
solving riddles. The chubby, balding King learns to balance
play and work time so that he can take responsible care of
his land and citizens, yet still enjoy a playful life. The
moral-of-the-story is not laid on thick - it is lightly applied so
it will be easily accepted by young children. Teachers,
librarians and caretakers will enjoy reading this pleasant
book to children who like to play rather than accomplish
chores or school assignments.

The illustrator, David Martin, is extremely accomplished and
very gifted. Each page is filled with incredible detail that
reveals more the longer one gazes at them. Many
illustrations some form of nature included from the
fantastically sculpted bushes, an array of birds and a maze
of hedges with a big ‘B’ in the center (B - for King
Bartholomew). Richly colored clothes and hilarious
costumes for the jester and the King’s servants prove to add
an interesting twist to this fun-loving book.

Rich Jerk E-book Review

Many people on the Internet have seen the Rich Jerks E-book
being advertised online and have wondered is this a scam? Is
this like all those late night infomercials that promise the
world and all the riches you can imagine for a small payment of
$100 or $50 or maybe only $25. After reading this book I can say
no!! What I will tell you is it takes work and how much you get
out of it depends how much you put into it. A few weeks ago I
knew nothing about building websites, affiliate programs or
search engine optimizations and know I am earning thousands a
month and this is only the beginning. It can be the same for
you. I am not a computer wiz but weeks after I got this e-book I
learned things that people who have been Webmasters for years
have not even figured out yet. I have my own successful home
based business that makes enough money that I do not need my job
anymore which is more than many Webmasters have been able to do
after years of effort. The Rich Jerks book has given me the
freedom I have wanted for years. I no longer have a boss I have
to answer to. I do not have to be at work at a certain time come
rain or shine. I have the freedom to do the things that I’ve
always wanted to do and with a little effort you can too. If
their is one thing I know it is if I can do it anyone can. If
you are interested check out the Rich Jerks website at The Rich
Jerk. Another e-book I recommend is called “Breakthrough
Money-Making Secrets Revealed” by Holly Mann who learned many of
her secrets from the Rich Jerks e-book and can be found here Click Here!
