A Century Turns, New Hopes, New Fears, by William J.Bennett will be my first book to review from Books Sneeze.

.I took a look at the books on offer from Book Sneeze, for my first read and review and the list was fairly limited. One political non fiction book, which I chose and the remainder were heavily Christian literature books. I am hoping that as I progress with this company, a wider range of books will become available to select from.

This will be a new type of reading for me, yes I am an avid reader of political and historical fact but usually in essay form rather than book length format.  I'm also a very keen political and historical TV documentary watcher so the subject will be familiar to me and I will have a wide cross reference of varied opinions to weigh up the writers view point.
 
This supplier of these FREE books for blog reviewers, is US based so I expect to receive my first book to review from them in about two weeks time.
Once I have reviewed it I am hoping a wider selection of books will be come available for me, the reviewer, to select from. 
I will let you know if I think Books Sneeze is worth reviewing for. 
I will be also, very interested in hearing other bloggers opinions, of the Book Sneeze, available book selection.

The book I have chosen to review from the Book Resources, is

A Century Turns New Fears, New Hopes--America 1988 to 2008 By William Bennett Average Blogger Rating:

Book Description Author, historian, and educator William J. Bennett examines America’s last two decades.

Twenty years ago, John McCain was serving his second year in the Senate, and Colin Powell had just been promoted to chairman of the Joint Chiefs of Staff. There was no Fox News Channel, no American Idol. Saddam Hussein and the Ayatollah Ruholla Khomeni ruled Iraq and Iran, respectively. George W. Bush was the fairly unnoticeable son of the then-president. If you asked someone to “email me,” you would have received a blank stare, and “Amazon” was a forest in South America. Finally, 20 years ago a young man named Barack Obama was elected the first black president of the Harvard Law Review. The two decades from 1988 to 2008 have proved to be some of the most pivotal in America’s history. Based on a lifetime of experience in government and education, William J. Bennett defines the events that shaped American history during the final years of the century.

I have been talking about children's classic books and nursery rhymes with my face book friends. I wonder how many of these were written in order to explain to children the effects of illness or the mental health behaviour of adults.

A brief ‘lay persons’, analysis of the two great Children’s classics.

This is my feelings about the possibly health condition and behaviour being explained by the stories in, ‘Through the Looking Glass, by Lewis Carroll”, and Peter Pan, by J. M. Barrie.

I never liked 'Through the looking Glass', though I live' Peter Pan’.

I see Peter Pan, the story of the mischievious boy who never grew up as the child fiction explanation of the adult who needs supervision because they have lost their executive function and have a cognitive function disorder, or Frontal lobe degeneration and or dementia . I have a 'Peter Pan', and I'm Wendy the carer and I love our Never Never land, (eco-therapy), life.  Oh and there was a dog, in the Peter Pan story.

Through the Looking Glass, or Alice in Wonderland, I feel is probably an explanation to a child of an adult’s uncontrolled schizophrenia nightmare and it scared the heeby Jeeves out of me when I first read it as a child and saw the film and I still do not like the story. I do not choose nightmares as my reading entertainment :-)
