Will Barnes and Noble let me return my book?


So I bought a book at B&N and a few minutes later my 21 year old brother thought it would be funny to rip all the pages out. It was one of the super expensive books and I still have the receipt so do you think I could return it?

What's the easiest way to learn Aramaic?


I want to learn Aramaic but it's not exactly like I can walk into Barnes and Nobles and buy Rosetta Stone for Aramaic. Are there any resources you know of?

Thank you!
Added (1). EDIT: Since I figured that the people answering questions in the language section would understand what Aramaic is before answering: Aramaic is a dead language and not one that was widely spoken such as Latin (I have learned Latin but I would like to learn Aramaic and I'm having difficulty finding the resources).

OH and one more thing. Any sarcastic, irrelevant, or unhelpful answers will be flagged.

What genre would a baby book be under?


I don't mean like a kid's "Dr. Seuss Book." I mean a "baby's firsts" and stuff that you sort of document it in throughout their childhood and your pregnancy.
I really want to get my son a baby book's and I'm not sure what genre it is on Barnes & Nobles website.

Book Store Conspiracy?


You guys remember the good ole' days in 2000-2005 where there was Hollywood Videos and Blockbuster Video and we all went to buy or rent movies or video games and now everything is digital and those 2 stores closed down almost everywhere in the United States by 2010 (I think, I am not sure) . As of now every book store is closing down at least in my area (northern california) and I am really depressed because I love books and I go to Barnes and Noble to read books all day long until I get bored or finish a 300-400 pages book and around 2008 when I was 8 years old there was this place called Borders and I don't know if it is still there in some parts of the United States but I know all of the ones in my area closed down and it hurted me because the Borders I went to was relaxing and there were a lot of chairs to sit down in. After I believe 4 years? (I still am not sure) Barnes and Noble came and took over Borders and now people go there to buy books and stuff. Now it is 2015 and barely any books stores are still out there at least in my area and Barnes and Noble is closing everywhere next to me and I am getting sad because what if Book Stores end up being like Movie stores. Like all Barnes and Nobles close down just like Hollywood videos and Blockbuster video. If this happens I don't know where to enjoy my solitude. I feel so depressed as a 16 year old and I wish there were more book stores but all of them closed down and still are. Will Bookstores close down at some point?
Added (1). Please tell me I am not the only one depressed about this because what if in 2017 there is not one Bookstore in the United States and I am mad because why is this happening?

What is the subject and theme of this poem?


My Home, by Ella Wheeler Wilcox

This is the place that I love the best,
A little brown house, like a ground-bird's nest,
Hid among grasses, and vines, and trees,
Summer retreat of the birds and bees.

The tenderest light that ever was seen
Sifts through the vine-made window screen--
Sifts and quivers, and flits and falls
On home-made carpets and gray-hung walls.

All through June the west wind free
The breath of clover brings to me.
All through the languid July day
I catch the scent of new-mown hay.

The morning-glories and scarlet vine
Over the doorway twist and twine;
And every day, when the house is still,
The humming-bird comes to the window-sill.

In the cunningest chamber under the sun
I sink to sleep when the day is done;
And am waked at morn, in my snow-white bed,
By a singing bird on the roof o'erhead.

Better than treasures brought from Rome,
Are the living pictures I see at home--
My aged father, with frosted hair,
And mother's face, like a painting rare.

Far from the city's dust and heat,
I get but sounds and odors sweet.
Who can wonder I love to stay,
Week after week, here hidden away,
In this sly nook that I love the best--
This little brown house like a ground-bird's nest?

I know the subject is home, what is the theme?

Do people ever do any story writing at Barnes and Nobles?


Everytime I go to Barnes and Noble, I have my notebook and pen with me so I can write down some story ideas. Does anyone else do that?

Why does the last stanza in this poem have 2 more lines than the others?


My Home - Poem by Ella Wheeler Wilcox

A little brown house, like a ground-bird s nest,
Hid among grasses, and vines, and trees,
Summer retreat of the birds and bees.

On home-made carpets and gray-hung walls.
