Find Momo: Hide and Seek With an Adventurous Border Collie by Andrew Knapp

I had never heard of Andrew Knapp or his beautiful dog Momo until I was asked to review the book. Knapp took Momo into the woods to play fetch one day and Momo didn't bring the stick back. Instead he was playing hide-n-seek. From then on Knapp thought he'd do a new twist on "where's Waldo." Knapp takes beautiful pictures and Momo hides. It's a beautiful book with a fun twist of finding out where Momo's hiding.

I received this book from the publisher in exchange for a fair and honest review.

Star Trek, The New Movie

A+!

WOW! This was an awesome film! I'm a big a Trekkie and was very excited for this film to come out! My husband and I were finally able to see it last weekend with the help of my mother watching our cute little boy!

It's a fun and exciting movie for all, whether you're a Trekkie or new to the genre. I hope people who haven't checked out "Star Trek" before, will now.

I give two big thumb ups for this movie!! What a way to kick-off the summer! Enjoy!

Klingon

As a special tribute to the new "Star Trek" movie I thought I would talk a little bit about that wonderful language Klingon! Even though I hear that none is actually spoken in the new film...oh well!

Klingon was first introduced in "Star Trek: The Motion Picture," which James Doohan- who played Scotty- came up with a few lines of dialogue. Two movies later for "Star Trek III" they hired Marc Okrand to come up with more lines of dialogue for Klingon.

Marc Okrand, who is a linguist, used the lines created by James Doohan to build the rest of the Klingon language. He has written a dictionary which includes full grammar and pronunciation of Klingon. There is even an institute called the Klingon Language Institute for the promotion and support of Klingon! Shakespeare's "Hamlet" has even been translated into Klingon!

Languages are fascinating no matter what, but made up languages are just as fascinating! For more on Klingon read this article "There's No Klingon Word For Hello" by Akira Okrent.Or you can look it up on Wikipedia http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Klingon_language.
