Dracaena deremensis Janet Craig Compacta is a refined, compact cultivar of the popular Dracaena family with lush, deep green foliage and manageable size. Originating from tropical Africa, this plant has been a staple in interior landscaping since the mid-20th century, admired for its resilience and minimal care requirements, making it one of the best easy houseplants for beginners.
This variety stands out with its glossy, lance-shaped leaves that grow densely around a central stem, creating a rosette-like appearance. Unlike its taller counterpart, the standard 'Janet Craig', the 'Compacta' maintains a shorter stature, making it ideal for desks, shelves, and small spaces.
Janet Craig Compacta is a slow-growing plant, typically reaching a height of 2 to 3 feet and a width of 1 to 2 feet over several years. Its upright growth habit and compact form make it an excellent choice for areas with limited space, providing a vertical accent without overwhelming the surroundings.
According to NASA's Clean Air Study, Dracaena varieties, including 'Janet Craig Compacta', effectively remove common indoor pollutants like formaldehyde, benzene, and trichloroethylene, contributing to improved indoor air quality. Moreover, in Feng Shui, Dracaena species are believed to bring positive energy and harmony into the home, symbolizing growth and prosperity.

Thrives as a low light houseplant in bright, indirect light conditions but is tolerant of lower light levels. Avoid direct sunlight, which can scorch the leaves.
Allow the top inch of soil to dry out between waterings. Overwatering can lead to root rot; ensure the pot has proper drainage.
Prefers a well-draining, peat-based potting mix. Fertilize monthly during the growing season with a balanced, diluted liquid fertilizer; reduce feeding in the fall and winter.
Ideal temperatures range from 65°F to 80°F (18°C to 27°C). Prefers moderate humidity; occasional misting can help, especially in dry environments.
Dracaena deremensis is toxic to pets and humans if ingested. Keep out of reach of children and animals.

Too expensive for what you get
Format: Hardcover
This book is pretty. I'm a huge fan of Pride and Prejudice, and I have many copies of it. This one is smaller than I thought it would be for the price. I don't think I would have ordered it if I had held it. Just too expensive for its size. Also not as pretty as others I've gotten for less.

A Beautiful Copy of the Classic(... and a little oops!)
Format: Hardcover
This is a beautiful copy of Jane Austen's classic! The cover art, the design, and gold-edging for the pages all come together to make for a lovely book perfect for display. Better yet: it's perfect for reading too. A lot of fancy printings of classics result in something that's nice to look at but not especially comfortable to read, whether it's the stiffness of the spine, the material of the pages, etc. This one manages to take both aesthetics and practicality into account, so bravo!
The one drawback, thus resulting in the star knocked off my rating, is that the title on the spine is upside down. It's a little thing, but I'll have to shelve it wrong side-up or it will drive me bonkers.

Dangerous, Adventure, and a Brave Young Hero
Format: Kindle
I Escaped The California Camp Fire, by Scott Peters, is an action-packed story based on a real-life disaster. It's a book that will have kids glued to its pages, turning them in anticipation of what will happen next. Like the wildly popular 'I Survived' series that fly from the elementary and middle school library shelves, this 'I Escaped' story is one young readers won't want to miss.
14-year-old Troy and his sister Emma are home alone for the night when the devastating fire begins. In the morning, it's still dark as night, the air filled with smoke. Troy, his sister, and the people and animals of the small California town of Paradise must flee quickly to survive.
With short chapters that end on intriguing cliffhangers, kids will enjoy following Troy on his adventure to save himself, his sister and pets from the oncoming fire. Parents and caregivers will enjoy the fact that this is a story based on a true-life event, and at the end of the story there is information about it. There is also a common-core guide available for educators, making this a school friendly pick. Kids will love the book, though, for its danger, adventure - and brave young protagonist.

Both a good story and a well written one
Format: Kindle
What I liked about this book is that it can be read with the real California fire in mind, or purely as a story. And that it is both a good story and a well written one. And the quip about organic-this and hummus-that (I feel you).
Troy, who is fourteen, and his younger sister Emma are left home alone for a night by their parents. After a late night junk food and movie splurge, Troy and Emma wake up to find that the electricity's out, the sky is black with smoke, and everyone's left town. What would you do?

Terrific Book for Kids or Easy Read for Adults
Format: Kindle
I have read books about the Camp Fire as well as books about other fires. I have also seen the documentary about the Camp Fire. This book does a really good job of capturing the experience of fleeing a wildfire without being unnecessarily gruesome or morbid. The back has a timeline and facts about the fire as well as suggestions for coping if you’re in the same predicament. I think many kids will enjoy the sense of adventure and fast pace of the book. Really good job!
