Mini-Stroke Books

I really like this calendar. There is plenty of room to write different events, birthdays etc.

This calendar is a must have for Ansel Adams fans and anyone who enjoys displaying and viewing great outdoors B&W photography. I highly recommend this item.

This is an outstandong calendar that my daughter asks for and gets from us at Christmas. Over the past two years our UK book stores stopped stocking it. That's where Amazon comes in..........ordered, and delivered well before estimated delivery time from America via Germany AND even with post & packing charges it was cheaper than walking into a book store in the UK. This is where buying on the web with reputable companies score....door to door service.

Every year at Christmas time we give an Adams wall calendar to a daughter who is a wonderful photographer and a nature lover. One year we decided maybe it was time to stop doing that, and we heard about it! I'm glad you carry it, because it is not as easily available elsewhere as it used to be.

I purchase this wall calendar every year. Ansel Adams is my favorite black/white photographer and I enjoy photography myself, as a hobby- The photos are stunning. I look forward to the beginning of each month so I can see what the next masterpiece will look like. There is plenty of room to fill in all your apppointments-All-around great calendar!

I have bought this calendar each year, for many years, for my daughter who is a college professor and a member of the English department. The quality of the selections has always been excellent and it is the calendar that she uses in her office.

I wish the product description would have mentioned this product's format. It is an "engagement calendar" --- a spiral bound book-type calendar. The artwork is very nice, but I was shopping for a wall calendar.

I really like this product. This is the 2nd year that I have bought this and the pictures are not the same. I did not realize that there were so many pictures of woman reading in art. It is a metal spiral bound so it will lay flat and there is a month overview plus day to day pages.

A great gift for the women in your life who love to read.
It has many works by lesser known artists of the 19th/20th
centuries and the prints may be framed for continued enjoyment.

Words and image combine in this calendar to create an homage to reading and women who read. The words are quotations from know authors such as Gertrude Stein ("Writing and reading is to me synonymous with existing"), and the images are mostly pictures of oils by equally known painters such as Mary Cassatt ("Mrs. Duffee Seated on a Striped Sofa Reading")--2007 calendar.

The calendar measures 12" wide by 13" length (26" open). Dates are in roomy 1 1/2" squares, and all special days are noted. I have used this calendar for three years straight now. My husband gave me my first "The Reading Women," and I liked it so well that I could not part with it. Lucky for me, I did not have to because it has not ceased publication.

a collection of keiths works, from the beginning to the very end. installations, sculptures, as well as his paintings on buildings and objects grace the pages of this large format book. a definite for every fan of this kutztown boy. describes keiths life through letters and stories from friends, photos, and many beautiful full color works by the artist. bright and bold, just like his life.

A VERY COMPREHENSIVE LOOK AT WORKS FROM THE WHOLE OF KEITH HARING'S RELATIVELY SHORT CAREER, YOU GET A DEFINITE FEELING OF HIS WORK CHANGING BEFORE YOUR EYES. THE TEXT, OF WHICH THERE IS AROUND 20 PAGES, MORE THAN ADEQUATELY SUMS UP THE THEMES AND AIMS OF THE ARTIST . THERE IS ALL YOU COULD WANT REALLY:

· ART HISTORICAL CRITICISM( WITH FREQUENT REFERENCE TO THE ONSUING PLATES) · INTERVIEWS WITH KEITH HARING HIMSELF · A FULL LIST OF ALL THE EXHIBITIONS AND STREET ART HE DID · SELECTED BIBLIOGRAPHY · 182 PLATES

YOU GET A REAL FEEL FOR WHAT THE ARTIST WAS ABOUT, SO WOULD BE AN IDEAL FIRST BOOK ON KEITH HARING, AND A GOOD REFERENCE BOOK FOR THE ART HISTORY STUDENT!

I know a bargain when I see one. Sussman's book juxtaposes Keith's drawings and paintings alongside interviews with Keith's contemporaries (they even bring in Junior Vasquez), without any attempt at being complete. The price is lowered because of a black Sharpie line on the top of the pages. That's it! If you have any interest in Keith Haring or even art in general, this is a great way to look at a great artist.

This is a book I picked up at the Whitney exhibit in 1997 - it's a great variety of all Keith's work. His style has varied over the years and this book does a great job showing his evolution. My favorite part is the fact that many of his pieces from his youngest years are included. It's always interesting to see where your favorite artist started.

this is the perfect size day planner. it is small enough to fit in your purse, but big enough not to get lost.

The pages are really pretty colors and the pictures are very cute. This is the 4th year I've ordered this calendar and I love it. It has a little elastic thing that keeps it closed.

The most important part of a daily planner is of course, the area's to write in, but what is neglected is a place to keep items of importance. This calendar has 2 flaps attached to the front and back cover so you can slip in notices and items of constant use.
The beauty of the calendar shows American Folk Art, which is lovely but the flexibility and durability of this calendar - with the additional features, make it the one calendar I purchase every year.

I have purchased Linda Nelson Stocks calendars yearly for probably about ten years and never tire of the beauty of the country folk art on each page. There has never been a calendar that disappointed me yet.

Susan Branch is one of my all time favorite illustrators. Her drawings are just delightful. Plus, the recipes she includes in the calendars are truly delicious. I have all her books and would not hesitate purchasing more if she were to publish others in the future. Her Best Biscuits recipe is out of this world!!

I'm so happy for Susan Branch that all her books and calendars get 5 star ratings from Amazon readers! They deserve it, each one she does, you think it can't get any better, then it does. I'm on her email newsletter list and I got her Autumn Book recently -- just wonderful! On the front of this calendar, she's got a quote that says "I'm trying to arrange my life so I don't have to be present." I know exactly how she feels! She writes about the seasons in such a homey way, I just can't wait to turn the page each month to see what bit of wisdom, what recipe, what story she has in mind for us. Can't say enough nice stuff about these calendars -- you will love them.

I think you have outdone it this time around. This year (2009) is fantastic. Much better then last years. So Many more Beautiful patterns to do. It is truly worth buying it.

I always put up a Coca-Cola calendar in my office. I look for the ones that portray the ads I remember as a child. This one is perfect for that.

I was glad to see the artwork by the different artists was full page and many I haven't seen before. The select biographical excerpts in the margins and special days were a nice touch. I think this would be a good choice for any fan of Poe who is interested in a variety of artwork relating to his poems and stories.

This engagement calendar is both beautiful and functional. Makes a great gift for yourself or family/friend. The artwork is really beautiful to look at.
