Books & Authors - February 2007

I want to buy a book as a present for someone - I want it to be a 'classic' book, and I want it to be about love and have a happy ending? What do you think?

I was playing with the languages, and Kemosabe with sidekick Tonto sound suspiciously like the Spanish "Quien no sabe" and "Tonto". These translate to "who doesn't know" and "fool".
Since the legend is of a man of honor past his time, I see a similarity.

The book was about an elephant called Chang (I think) and was about the place where the elephants go to die. I read this book in an English literature class, aged 12, in 1965. The book was very sad.

The book is about a young lady who is betrothed to the duke of (milan??) but he ignores he and fools around with his mistress. She ends up becoming friends with Leonardo da Vinic while he is painting her portrait. It takes into accoung events that happened in Leonardo's life and tells it with a twist.
I think it was called the wife of________ but I'm not sure.

The dog is white, and average size. It's a boy. And we already have another dog named Gully (after Gulliver).

Any character name, or place name that is a good name for a dog would be great. Thanks so much.

I know that this in explained in the book, of course it because Tolkin would never make this kind of mistake, but I keep forgetting. They are immortal yet when they show up to battle they die, is there a special type of metal that kills them or something?

Years ago I read this story and I don't remember the title or anything. People came down to research a destroyed planet - and they find a statue that they can only read Lib, and a stadium that they find destroyed that has a sign that says Go Yank or something, and either way they end up being aliens that come to earth after humans have destroyed themselves. I can't remember anything else - Does any one have any clue of it at all? People always say the story is familliar but no one can remember nothing of it. I even asked bookstores, librarys and all.

What kind of story do you like to watch or read? Fiction, fantasy, Non Fiction, horror, action, romance, comedy. If you are into harry potter type series state that or if your into two types submerged like action - fantasy or romance comedy etc.
Just asking cause Im getting opinions of what people like when I create my novel.
