Buster, a half-German Shepherd mutt, was adopted by Roy Hattersley in December 1995. He began to dictate his diaries soon after his arrival. Buster became England's most famous dog in 1996 when he defended himself against a goose in St. James's Park -- a goose which, unfortunately, belonged to the Queen. Pursued by the press ever since, he has sought solace in writing. Buster's Diaries is the comically heart-warming true story of Buster's triumph over adversity, as he describes his rescue from a paw-to-mouth existence on scraps to his new life in the lap of luxury -- and at the same time reveals the secrets of the strange relationship between dog and the Man on the other end of the lead. Never before have readers been offered such insights into the aromatic canine world. The irresistible fragrance of chicken bones picked off the sidewalk. The special rituals required to receive delicious treats (pig ears, dog biscuits). The sawdust balls Buster must eat to stay healthy while the Man gobbles down chocolate cookies. The painful digestive consequences of eating cream filled cookies while still wrapped. The diaries also reveal the strain of living with the Man -- the constant power struggle of who's boss, the "training" ceremonies, the Man's strange excrement collection syndrome and reliance on new dog humiliation technology. Buster's Diaries will make you laugh and it will make you cry but it has a happy ending. While it exposes the man-made myths about d

Diaries celebrating a dog's joy at owning a human, by the most famous dog in Britain. Buster has written these diaries himself - whenever he could remember where he hid the manuscript in his garden. In it he lays bear the truth of how The Man has held Buster back, pretending to protect fur and feathers. Buster's last book was an instant bestseller and, outrageously, The Man took all the credit. To add insult to injury, there were no extra biscuits. Worse, The Man forced Buster to eat low-fat ones, while he himself continued to eat lots of chocolate ginger nuts. Despite The Man's best efforts, Buster still gets into lots of scrapes, and, although his sight and hearing are failing somewhat, he still wants to 'go courting' - especially in springtime. Buster remains unaware of what happened that day at the vet's, and no one will explain it to him, but they continue to allude to something. On a visit to Ireland a gentleman tapped his nose and said to The Man, 'You can't fool me. I've worked it out. You wrote the book.' Buster was so upset by this vile calumny that he wanted to give the gentleman a good nip. Then he remembered the words of someone called Robert Kennedy who The Man goes on about: 'Don't get angry. Get even.' And he has. And this time it's personal. As Buster says, 'No more Mr Nice Dog.'

Providing insight in a familys history against the backdrop of major world wars, Busters Book offers a collection of more than a thousand letters exchanged during the twentieth century as young men provided service to their country. In this memoir, author Donald Junkins has compiled letters, diaries, interviews, recollections, and photographs of the familys participants in both world wars and the Korean and Vietnam wars. This fascinating historical record includes the stories of a variety of escapades: from single-handedly opening an eight-year-old Nazi prison camp; to B-24 air forays from New Guinea in which an aerial gunner shot down two Japanese Zero planes; and to the rescue in Korea of wounded men stalled in a jeep in the middle of a freezing river that culminated in the awarding of the Silver Star. Busters Book reflects both the lives of a middle-class American family during these years and the daily activities of two generations of young American men at war.

In Book 2 of The Wizard Without a Wand, Jenie Maloy tells us her version of what happened during her first year at Wizard School. While it’s the same story as Shmedley Thrumbledack’s story in Book 1 of this series, we learn different things. For one thing, it’s told from a different person’s perspective. For another, Jenie remembers more things than Schmedley. Jenie Maloy is one of the Tensome – a group of ten kind students who somehow end up together in their dorm – Hotel Westly. Jenie doesn’t want her parent to find about her friends, because every time they do, she quickly loses those friends. Jenie thinks she wants to hang with the super-rich kids. She also wants to hang out with boys, several boys, enough boys to drive her parents nuts. But she finds that hanging with the Tensome is what she really wants to do. And she learns that she has a gift she has always wanted, but which she always thought she never had. In this book, we are introduced to the rest of the Tensome and to the rest of the Teachers. Rating G; Reading Level Easy 5th Grade; Longest Word: Incomprehensibly Jennie Malloy is a young teenage girl. The day before she heads to Wizard School, she changes her name to Jenie Maloy. She hopes people will mistake her name for Genie. Her parents give her a magic diary. She can write whatever she wants to in the diary and then look it up remotely, later when she needs to know it. Her magic diary won’t let her cheat on schoolwork. But it does help her remember things, especially the names of all those boys. Jenie’s parents give her the choice of riding the Train to Wizard School or riding the Bus. Even though Jenie knows that she’ll totally loathe riding on the Bus, she agrees to do so. Jenie figures that riding the Bus to Wizard School is the right thing to do. And doing the right thing will get her into Hotel UpAbove where all the super-rich kids stayed. Well, maybe she’d only end up in Hotel Northby where the rich, but not super-rich, kids stayed. However, something went terribly wrong. For Jenie Maloy ended up in Hotel Westly. Yet, as soon as she met the hotel clerk Pinkshny Shmerimidan, she knew that they would be best friends, even though Pinkshny was several years older.
