I want to a get book for my God Son, Alexander. He was born in September with a hole in his heart. He had to get surgery 3 days after he was born and will need heart surgery every few years until he is a grown adult. He’s the strongest baby I’ve ever known. I'm looking for a children's book that has a good message related to what he’s been though; something that talks about courage, being strong, something like that. Anyone have any suggestions?

I don't remember the name or the author, but it was perhaps a young adult book. About a young kid who lived near and who climbed the Matterhorn? I think his father or grandfather had also done it. I remember he left the village carrying bread and cheese. Any ideas, please?

I see a lot of classicaly applauded poetry and I see a lot written by internet hacks and I honestly can't tell the difference. For fun - I'll post two poems here - were they written by poets or hacks?

I swallowed my words twenty weeks ago,

A web so well-woven,

I circled the edges,

amazed at how you survived.

I laughed and I cried,

and you'll never know.


Today I smile when I see your picture -

and I feel all the love of a friend.

Tomorrow, forgotten, another arisen,

The end of the cycle,

The start of the circle,

I'm swallowing words once again.

I'm a 23 year old male who doesn't know what to read or what authors are worthwhile. I'm also afraid that if I pick up a random book from the library that I'd pick something that might snap my recent dedication to reading. Angels and Demons got me hooked, then the Da Vinci Code and the Bourne Trilogy kept me going and got me excited, but I'm out of ideas. I think I'm looking for adventure or excitement and I am a fan of twists or deception. I think ultimately I just need something that SOUNDS like it could be interesting, but again, I don't know what's out there. Any suggestions are welcome, especially if they are your personal favorites or had some kind of impact to you.
