"I just returned from Italy yesterday and read Walk with Me through the Internet--and loved it. I learned a lot in
such an easy and gentle way."

"Walk with Me through the Internet successfully presents a
complex subject simply, without making it simplistic. That's a difficult
task.
I'll want to order a copy or two for the middle school library!"

"We love Walk with Me through the Internet, the Internet , our computer, and you! Thank you for writing the book which opened us to a vast world of accessing and storing
information.
We planned our trip to England with our friends in Weymouth via e-mail and now
we keep in touch. Everything is easier with the computer; planning trips,
tracking finances, current events, communicating with friends and family,etc.
Thank you for being such a wonderful son!"

"I have worked with computers for 20 years and did not
want to spend the frustrating time it takes to 'learn something new.'
Today, I spent less than two enjoyable hours lying by the pool, in the
sunshine, reading Walk with Me through the Internet. As soon as I finished
I went to your website sunshinedaydream. (It's a great website). I just
couldn't wait to send you an email telling you how helpful your book is. My
son (age 20) told me our generation is the last of the computer illiterates.
Maybe all we need is a good teacher. Thank you, you did a great job!!"

"Dear Andrew,
On behalf of the patients, and the families at Lucile Salter Packard Children's Hospital at Stanford we want to thank you for your engaging presentation about the Internet and the gift of 200 books, "Walk with Me through the Internet," for our patients. The presentation and the books were absolutely wonderful.
Your donation was a perfect addition to the Recreation Therapy/Child Life programs and services provided for the patients and their families at the hospital. With the support of your group we are able to create a fun-filled environment and bring smiles to many children and their families.
I can't tell you how much it means to our hospital and to the patients and families to have your support. A day at the hospital can be very unpredictable. The patients, and their families, are very appreciative of your generosity to brighten so many lives.
Thank you again for your donation and your time. Best wishes to you all."
Sincerely,
Shannon Gullion,
Lucile Packard Children's Hospital

"Walk with Me is very helpful but since I have no computer, I needed a basic exlanation of computers to start with. Thank you."

"HELPFUL!"

"I really enjoyed reading Walk with Me through the Internet. It was enjoyable, easy, and fun. Walk with Me through the Internet pulled together the little bits and pieces of my understanding of the Internet. I have been using email and the Web for some time now, but I never really had perspective. Your book has given me a much better view of Internet landscape. It makes a lot more sense now. Thanks!"

Thank you for your generosity."

"WALK WITH ME THROUGH THE INTERNET
COMES AT A CRUCIAL TIME OF MY LIFE.
I FEEL MUCH BETTER ABOUT THE MONSTER ON THE DESK ALREADY.
Many thanks to you ... for contributing to the salvation of my sanity and dignity.
I'll be using your advice daily from now on."
Dr. Sandor Burstein
Internet newcomer, San Franisco, California
"From cover to cover, it is less than
100 pages, in large print with easy to understand language and
entertaining illustrations...I think it is an outstanding guide and I do keep it at my side as I find my way through the Internet and find that 'A Friendly Glossary' is
a most useful tool --I use it all the time. Whenever computer language
appears that I am unfamiliar with, I just open Walk with Me through the
INTERNET to page 87 and there is all the help there that I could
possibly need (at this stage in my computer career)."

"I like your book! It's great!"
Greg Herlein

"I don't have much of an interest in the Internet, but when I got your book, I just couldn't put it down. It feels so nice and easy to read. The paper is just goreous too."
Florence Rosenberg

"Walk with Me through the Internet is perfect for my family. Please send me 5 copies: one for my mom, dad, grandfather, brother and cousin. They'll think this is a great gift."
Andrew Quinn

"Thank you so much for the book! It turned out great! The
illustrations are wonderful--did you do all of them?." (Author's note: yes I did!)
