Tony Horton
One on One
P90X - MC2
Volume 3 Disk 3
Shoulders and Arms
Beachbody
Out of the thirty One on One workout DVD's this is one of the best and one of my favourites. It 
is a good old fashioned weight workout with a Tony Twist. 
Tony does a set of two exercises then repeats three times. With four pairings of exercises for shoulders and arms and three rounds each, you end up blasting through 24 sets. And you do those 24 sets in 57 minutes with warm-up and cool down. It is a great workout that can be done in under an hour.
The Exercises are:
Pike Press
Arnold Press
Straight Arm 6 Move Fly
Seated Flies
Seated Curls
Stability Ball Skull Crushers
Crazy Eights
Tricep Kickbacks
Equipment Needed:
Stability Ball or Balance Ball
Weights or Exercise Bands
Bench or Chair
It is a hard workout. It is a fun workout and it has a great pace and variety. To find out more about this series or other workouts in the collection, follow the links below. I have created a random workout generator that uses 1 on 1's and P90X if your interested.

This wonderful Hallowe'en book for young children has a house that Jack built, a ghost, a ghoul, the mummy, the beast with the pointy horn, a fairy, a count, a skeleton, a witch, and a monster and a lot of Hallowe'en rhyming fun. The illustrations are incredible. With each page we are introduced to a new creature and the story expands. The rhyme becomes more complicated and extended as we meet the creatures and there is an unexpected twist at the end. This book will be great fun for children of all ages.
Ivy Loves To Give
Freya Blackwood
Arthur A. Levine Books
An Imprint of Scholastic
ISBN 9780545234672
I have had the privilege of reading a few of the books illustrated by Freya Blackwood and have always loved the illustrations. To my knowledge this is the first book both written and illustrated by her and it is amazing. It is so interesting to see her illustrate her own story instead of illustrating for someone else's words. Her artwork always has such soft, sensitive presentations. They draw the reader in. I find myself examining the illustrations more than once.
This book is the story of a young girl named Ivy, who likes to give gifts, but they are not always a good fit. Sometimes they are the wrong size, or do not fit or taste funny, but she continues to give. It is the story of a child with a pure heart who loves and loves to give. It is a wonderful book.

Mommy Takes Away
Sharlene Weingart
Xlibris
ISBN 9781450057813
This book was very fun to read to my daughter. At first we thought it would be about all the stuff mommy takes away as punishment, but it is also about the good stuff mommy takes away. It is fun and playful. Each page has text on one side and on the facing page a bright vibrant illustration. Each page looks like it could be from a quilt or scrapbook, with a stitch-like frame around the edge. The illustrations are wonderful and the story fun. My wife, who is not much of a reader, really liked it. Sharlene is a school teacher in Dawson Creek BC, Canada. Her years of teaching in the classroom must have helped her write such a wonderful book for young readers.

This is the second book by Sharlene we have read as a family. The first Mommy Takes Away, was wonderful, and we enjoyed it immensely. This one is illustrated in a very different style. Each two-page spread has one page in full color and a facing page done in color but with an opaque overlay in a color to compliment the facing page. The style is very attractive and my children like looking at the opaque pages and hunting for details in the picture under the color. Each page has text and tells the story of a Father preparing to take his children camping. The story takes readers into the heart of nature, and the heart of children yearning for relationship with their father. It is a wonderful book; I am sure we will read again and again. Sharlene is a school teacher, whose years in the classroom have helped her to write such wonderful books for young readers. She hales from Dawson Creek BC, Canada. As a family we look forward to reading future offerings from her.
