Mockingbird Don't Sing

This movie brought back some very strong memories as I was going with Susie Curtiss at the time she began working with Genie. No, the movie is not exactly the true version of events as they were, but the overall impression is correct. For this reason, and because the subject is such an emotional one, I feel that it is definitely worth seeing.

One thing I do have to say is that Susie Curtiss is the one person who without a doubt was totally sincere in her feelings about Genie and her desire to help her. Susie worked with Genie as an aspiring linguist, but she always had Genie's interests at heart.

Genie's real name by the way is Suzie. In order to eliminate confusion for the young Suzie, Susie Curtiss simply used the name "Curtiss", which is how the young Suzie (Genie) referred to her. Simple and to the point, without any pretensions.

One Child

WOOOOOOOOOOOOW! I read it on the train to work, walking up the street, on my breaks, sneaking a few pages in during work and on the couch at home until I couldn't keep my eyes open. When I wasn't reading this beautiful story, I was thinking about it. When I was done, I reread the last chapter, and kept skimming through the book wishing there was more. THEN I found out she wrote another one about Sheila!!!! I bought it today...I just finished One Child this afternoon!

Understanding Child Abuse and Neglect (8th Edition)
$86.67
The seller shipped an as described textbook quite quickly, just in time for my class to start too. Very happy with seller, as well as dealing with Amazon purchases.

I would continue looking for textbooks for college classes through this method for sure. I stick with higher rated sellers - as experience tells me they are more consistent, exceptional in their descriptions on their items and by far much better resources than others.

Thank you for your continued high ratings for selling college textbooks at VERY REASONABLE prices!

If you're watching or buying this movie to find out info about the McMartin trial I recommend Indictment - The McMartin Trial

This film is about a Woman named Kendra Dollison.She's shocked to hear that a child who attends her son's preschool is making allegations about the teachers molesting the children.The Police Department sends out letters to all of the parents of the students stating that the employees were under investigation.Eventually,her son comes clean to a therapist about everything.What happens to the teachers is not actually stated in the movie.The movie ends with the children getting on a school bus as the credits roll.

The film was entertaining though the acting wasn't all that believable.I guess they took all of the allegations from the McMartin trial and made a movie of it.When watching it just remember that most of the things that happen in the movie were proven false in the McMartin trial.
