Hi markfch,
You feel the 'force' to walk towards Popular too ? Much as my brain doesn't want to step into Popular, my legs don't seem to 'listen' and ultimately I see myself inside
For Horrible Science, son has the 'Body Owners' Handbook' and 'Blood, Bones and Body Parts'. I find the books interesting esp the first title.

I think Popular got this effect on lots of parents :>. Must be some kind of powerful voodoo they have, haha.

Ok thanks for the Horrible Science recommendation. Will take a closer look at \"Body Owner's Handbook\".

Parents are sucked into Popular. HaHaHa.
IMM is one place where my brain and legs don't coordinate...brain says, 'Don't step in'. Legs say, 'Just take a look'.
I find 'Body Owner's Handbook' a good introduction to Science and body functions...rather fun and interesting to read, nothing academic.
Got the 2 other books from last year's BookFest (20% discount).

TIA.[/quote]yes, 2 options....scholastic UK ships directly to Singapore or you can choose to ship by VPOST Europe....Since VPOST does not allow consolidation, it is easier to ship directly from Scholastic....The charges are shown while checking out...You can try out how much is your shipping charges before the confirmation...

Agree! I spent alot since Dec till now. Danger of being too free and somehow Popular and Harris seem to be calling \"Happy Mama, come visit us\"... :rotflmao:

Thanks, I'm looking at their promotion pack of Horrible Science, History and Geography but it's currently out of stock.

Php, have you ever ordered directly through them? If yes, how long is the estimated delivery time?

I think the Popular card should be amended to allow parents to accumulate points like Passion card. We spend so much $$ there every month. But try telling this to a management which doesn't believe in honouring what is in BLACK AND WHITE.

You are very blessed, Mrsbongz. I personally like the chinese books selection there. My dd got a few good ones from there. One of her favourites is a series by SAP with a title Learning to be grateful (今天你懂得感激了没?) in which she reads a story, sometimes a few, every night before her devotion time. She calls it my Chinese Quiet Time. Practical me like the way the stories are written cos it helps with her expression in compo writing. I don't remember seeing them at other Popular bookstores.

E3:

she will devour one set of 8 in one single night and re-reads them again whenever she has the time. We are members of Science Centre so we get the Science Centre mag delivered. The whole idea is to be interested and read.

So is my daughter. she can forgo food and sleep if necessary whenever she gets a complete set of 8 for that day. Science centre is our faviourite too. Its like those 'nothing-to-do-day', we mostly end up in Science centre.
