Seaside Letters
On 9/28 Nicole Smith wrote: This book to me is like the movie Another Cinderella Story with Hilary Duff.

Word of Promise Next Generation New Testament MP3 Set
On 4/14 Nicole Smith wrote: You are sure to love this MP3 set. We did. Let me tell you about it. The audio recording is packed full of Hollywood actors that many of you may know. The actors are dramatic and speak clearly. I would say it is geared mostly towards children, but as an adult I found it encouraging to listen to. I ... Review: New Testament on MP3's, Cool Product!
