Read a children’s book (in Dec 2006, doesn’t make The Count) Call Me Hope by Gretchen Olsen. It addresses the topic of verbal abuse. I had a mixed reaction.

The central problem was well represented, however. C+

Cinderella Man. An Irish boxer who in the course of a two hour movie has exactly one beer and cheats on his wife never? File this one under Fantasy. Moving story, nice thought. Could he have been that great a guy? Over all, good entertainment. B.
