I do not understand how can such a good book can ever be criticised. This book has not only helped me in preparing for agent examination but also in better understanding of my day today work.Can publisher print the supplementary copies containing the revisions made in 2nd edition? This will give choice to the purchaser to either purchase the 2nd edition or only the supplementary copies in case they are already in possession of 1st edition. This will help in addressing the pricing issue also which some people are making hype about.
Our hearts break for your family. Rhonda had a heart of gold and will be forever missed.
Randy & Family
I first met Rhonda thru my daughter, Jeannie. My Grandaughter, Jorja Rae loved “Ra Ra”. I am so sorry for your loss. Rhonda had such spirit & energy. I am sure she is smiling as she watches over each of you! May God bless & comfort each of you.

I just heard about Rhonda’s passing. I am so very sorry for your loss. I met her years ago through the video store and always enjoyed sharing our mutual love of animals with her. My last encounter with her was at Paws for Attention when I picked up my puppy. Rhonda had her in her arms loving and spoiling her. Prayers for everyone in her family are being said.
Same thing happened to me when it reached 90 degrees out.It actually happened when it was cooler out, but not as badly as it did this week. I used the clear rubber bands from the box to pull them back to their original state. Think I182ll check tonight to see if I kept the plastic bits from the package and stick those back on.
