Google Products

I looked at Google Books and read online from "Kids Who Laugh: how to develop your child's sense of humor". It interestingly points out that humor is a learned response acquired largely through demonstration and observation. Kids learn what is funny from parents, other kids, media and society. This was interesting as you can search full text of books or magazines. To find magazines click on advanced search, type in search terms and the title results are displayed. The results seemed straightforward and search terms were hi-lighted and easy to find. I think I may supplement my Ebscohost search with this product. I also liked the layout as things appeared very user friendly.
