Book Review: The Cambridge Photographic Moon Atlas by Alan Chu, Wolfgang Paech and Mario Weigand
This book has such clear, useful images and information!
Wouldn't it be wondrously wonderful for authors Chu, Paech and Waegand to wend their ways through a follow-up work?

The Jewels of Paradise by Donna Leon, on Baroque Musician Agostino Steffani: Music Mystery Review
Donna Leon did not have a Guido Brunetti for 2025 even as she perhaps does have one for 2026.

Pilgrimage. A review
Yes, there are pilgrimages to Knock. But walking to Knock is rare, coach and air travel are the preferred ways. The Irish save walking for Croagh Patrick, which is 9ft done barefoot, though Maureen did not go barefoot when she did it. But Lough ...

So carrots attend to ngwayir appetites in captivity and domestication.

My feline sentient Gusty always flicked away any carrots. Might it have ...

Film Review of Little Miss Broadway: Shirley Temple Shines in 1938 Musical With George Murphy
Little Miss Broadway appeals to me in its attention to detail, in its feeling of being a complete plot and yet also a plot that asks for a follow-up and in its positive attitude.

Disney Cars - A Theme Party
Tablecloths do exist, but I would be guessing as to why they are not included. Some party kits include tablecloths, others do not. Making the kit overly expensive could be a reason, matching tablecloths for several tables could be another, and ...
