Readers will search beatiful, modern pop-ups to discover the hidden yellow square on each spread in this follow up to David A. Carter's New York Times award winning, 600 Black Spots. Customer reviews Universal Appeal  by .. M. Blatt (California and Idaho)
The fun of David Carter's "Yellow Square" is truly for all ages, from two to ninety-two. His clever and complex pop-up designs, bright colors, and the elusive little yellow squares make for a thoroughly enjoyable experience each time one turns the pages of this delightful book.
Repetitive and unimaginative  by .. Aeleen Frisch (Wallingford, CT USA)
I thoroughly enjoyed the author's previous 3 books: One Red Dot, Blue 2 and 600 Black Spots. Unfortunately, I was very disappointed by this book. It is quite derivative from the earlier works and offers little in the way of imagination, fun or whimsy. Unless you are a collector and want the book for completeness, I would recommend the earlier works as alternatives, especially for gift giving.

Customer reviews The Yellow Fairy Book by .. D. Clayton ()
This is part of a collection that I am ordering, a few at a time. I hope to have the whole set displayed in my dining room available for my grand-children and I to share.
Leaving behind the well-knowns for some incredible complexity by .. Emily J. Taylor (Utah)
What makes this particular volume of Lang's collection remarkable is its collection of quite unknown stories. While we all love "Little Red Riding Hood" and "Cinderella", there is nothing wrong with venturing for more complex stories, and that is what this volume provides.
I have not researched these, but I am under the impression that many of these stories were actually "written". I'm not sure how everyone will take that threat to oral folklore, but good fantasy is good fantasy, and I enjoy reading a fairy tale-esque story with extra complexity that still holds the same aura.
The illustrations are gorgeous, as usual, and display intricacies that fit the stories superbly.
Perhaps a more wild collection, but for that I love it all the more.
The best by .. Vampire Angel (USA)
When I was younger my Mom used to read me a book until I fell asleep. As I grew older, I began to read myself to sleep. As things changed only one thing stayed constant, my favorite books are still Andrew Lang's Fairy books. The Yellow Fairy book is a collection of 48 fairy tales written the way they were supposed to be written. Each tale ranges in length anywhere from a couple of pages up to about 20. The tales are fairly easy reads, but they don't lose any of their appeal. The book also contains several wonderful illustrations.
Some of the stories include: The Six Swans, Story of the Emperor's New Clothes, The Crow, The Cat and the Mouse in Partnership, The Three Brothers, The Magic Ring, How to Tell a True Princes, Thumbelina, and more.
I would suggest reading this book, I love it!
A bright multicultural selection by .. Heidi Anne Heiner (SurLaLune Fairy Tales.com)
With tales such as The Blue Mountains, The Cat and the Mouse in Partnership, The Dragon and His Grandmother, Fairer-than-a-Fairy, The Flower Queen's Daughter, The Glass Axe, How To Tell a True Princess, and many others how can anyone not find this book fun to read? Once again, Lang edits a book full of fairy tales from many lands that will entertain children and adults. The black and white illustrations are also superb.

Customer reviews UNBELIEVABLE!!! by .. Michelle Washington (Bronx, New York)
The Red and Yellow books were bought for my son in 1982.
He was never very fond of the books. However, as a childcare program owner, I am able to share books with hundreds of other children. Well, the Yellow and Red Books have been an all time hit with every preschool group we've had. The children (...)are in love with the books and are upset because the tapes are wearing out and we can not hear them too well. Were we surprised to find out we could purchase them again!! They are great for developing word
recognition and listening skills. These stories are enjoyable. We are sooooo happy to share with you and (Susan Batko) the years of joy these books have provided.
(...)
Thank You!!!!

HAH!!!! I do not do German!! Gift for my son--who's taking
german in college for several semesters. He's trying to get a jump on it!!
what an awesome kid!
He said it's got alot more help & words than his textbooks.
fantastisch! by .. klee (Chicago, IL)
This book is super! Has every verb tense laid out for you, with plenty of sentence examples of everyday uses. I use this book all the time! It was seriously the best $15 I have ever spent on a book.
Halte bitte hier... by .. R. Yeager (Indiana)
First of all, this book is a must have. If you need to rationalize this purchase, just look at it as the best $15.00 you'll ever spend on a German verb book. I own several dictionaries and a few verb-only books. I have the most recent Webster's New World 575+ German Verbs, and I love it too.
The Webster's version is a nice one for taking to a class in your bag, or for a quick reference. There are a few reasons why The Big Yellow Book is the better of the two. I will say here that there is nothing that isn't in The Big Yellow Book that is in the Webster's, but there is a lot missing from the Webster's that is clearly laid out here in this book. Don't be fooled by the 575+ Webster's number to the 555 Big Yellow Book; the Yellow Book wins, hands down!
The main thing I love about the Big Yellow book is the fact that it clearly lays out the separable prefix verbs (Webster's does not do this except in one or two cases); this is often already known by most people who have a basic understanding of German, but many verbs can be tricky as to whether it is separable or not; some verbs are both separable and inseparable each having different meanings.
The second thing is that the cross-reference section in the back is extremely complete. Many verb dictionaries have a fairly adequate one, but the Big Yellow Book is the most complete I have ever seen in a dictionary; it also features some really obscure verbs like "umnachten" [to enfold in darkness] and many other more obscure verbs. Honestly, it is by far and away the most complete all-in-one verb dictionary I have come across.
The Big Yellow Book also offers a very extensive list of idioms for the "Top 50" German verbs (all the other verbs list between 8-15 idiomatic uses). These "Top 50" have entire pages dedicated to idiomatic uses of verbs in conversation, which if you have learned anything about German it is the fact that the idioms get a little far from the meaning you expect. This is really useful for anyone wishing to communicate with any hope of sounding like a Deutscher(in).
The Big Yellow Book has a very in-depth study of grammatics for the first 38 pages. I found this entire section quite useful to cementing these concepts in my mind. The grammatic section even covers the 1999 Spelling Reform (for verbs), which I have never seen in a verb-only dictionary.
The only complaint I could make is a very minor one, the book is wonderfully laid out and I would change none of that, but they put the verb auxiliary "haben" or "sein" in a place that takes a moment to get used to, because it is not in the heading or directly below the verb in the heading. The book leaves ample space to place it near the verb entry. Like I said, it is only a minor complaint I could make.
I would highly recommend this book to anyone wishing to learn German, especially conversational German. Both the cross-reference section of odd verbs and the largest use of idiomatic expressions I have ever seen in any dictionary make this a must have. Seriously, buy this book! It really is the most bang-for-your-buck you will find, even against dictionaries that run close to $75 or more. Literally, this book has 1,000s of verbs that are, or easily are, fully conjugated. Viel Glück!
German Teacher Aide de Camp. by .. J. Devine (Middle of Muddle Middle Tennessee)
I like all these paradigm verb displays. This is great for using, just for backup, or for quelling an occasional student objection. Of course, if you are wrong, it serves as a negative reinforcement, but that is good for you. Essential for your German references.
A great value for this book! by .. Scott E. Dickinson (Roanoke, Virginia)
This is an excellent book. I have been self-teaching myself german for the past year or two, and this has helped a lot!
While this book is larger and may resember a medium sized cities phone book, the knoweldge it contains will outweigh any trouble that may be caused by carrying it around!
It tells you if it is a top 50 verbs, it also gives a bit of a grammar lesson for those that need a little brush up on what tense is! If you are learning german, by-pass the "white" books that have less verbs.

Product Description "Purity of thought guides the yogi to perfection." The base of all existence is a form of energy that defies conceptualization; yet throughout our history mankind has called that sacred force by many names: Isis, Mary, Maya, Adonia, and countless more. Contained in this book is a practical science to work directly with this energy, and experience for oneself the reality of the ancient and mysterious Divine Mother Kundalini, spoken of in all the world's great religions. Includes practices of meditation, transmutation, astral projection, pranayama, and the long-hidden Jinn Science. Topics include: Love; The Kundalini; The Two Witnesses; Mantric Song for the Awakening of the Kundalini; Children of Wisdom; Urdhvarata; The Cosmic Mother; Christic Egyptian Pranayama; Sexual Transmutation for Single People; Order and Esoteric Discipline; Meditation; Primary Clairaudient and Clairvoyant Experiences; The Still Small Voice; Esoteric Diet; Jinn State; Table Work; Jinn Substances; Sanctity Customer reviews Excellent guide to enter spiritual experiences by .. Stephen Drury (Gainesville, FL USA)
The Yellow Book is an excellent guide for anyone wanting to enter into their own pratical experience of spiritual truths. The author provides many different practices to assist devotees in meditation, sexual yoga, and the mysterious jinn science. People interested in this book must be willing to cultivate patience and tenacity.
A very wise book indeed! by .. RandomPerson178 ()
The Yellow Book is a wonderful treatise on a variety of esoteric and spiritual matters. Within its pages one finds practical information on a variety of subjects: the chakras, kundalini, astral projection, etc. Everything presented is essentially practical; very little theory is given, save what is needed to allow the student to practice.
Those readers who are interested in Gnosis but have never read anything by Master Samael Aun Weor may prefer to begin with a more basic book, such as Revolutionary Psychology. Never the less, anyone who works with the practices given the Yellow Book will be richly rewarded with practical knowledge and a more profound understanding of spirituality in general.
A training manual for Initiates by .. Ryan Kouroukis (Toronto, Ontario Canada)
The Yellow Book is for those who have a desire to taste the things not belonging to this 3 dimensional world,
...to know the higher worlds.
It is a small book condensed with Buddhism, Hinduism, ancient Egyptian and Christic wisdom.
A true synthesis of Esoteric-Gnostic Yoga.
This book is extremely important because in it is the first ever public revealing of how to engender superior children WITHOUT reaching the orgasm (the way which was taught in early Lemuria and Atlantis before the fall) as well as the complete explanation of sexual transmutation for single people.
Also of importance for mystics is the information regarding the Kundalini, Jinn Science and the 4th dimension.

1) Love
2) The Kundalini
3) The Two Witnesses
4) Mantric Song for the Awakening of the Kundalini

"This is The Yellow Book. This is the wisdom of the Buddhas. This is the science of the Cosmic Mind.
"In this Yellow Book we have taught the sacred Jinn Science to all human beings.
"The Yellow Book is a guide for practical esoterism. We must understand that this is a text, and a sure guide for the path of Initiation. Study this book and exercise these practices with intensity and supreme patience.
"The Yellow Book is a book of absolutely practical transcendental occultism. Beloved Brethren, here you have the Yoga that is required for this new Aquarian Era."
