The Buck Book: All Sorts of Things to do with a Dollar Bill-Besides Spend It 16 reviews
Anne Akers Johnson
Klutz, 1993
Great gift for my 13 year old daughter!
We gave this to my daughter for Christmas and she loves it. She's an artistic sort of girl...likes origami, etc so it was right up her alley. We cannot believe all of the cool things she makes with a dollar bill and she can do it anywhere. It's a great conversation starter and has made her popular with her friends! Absolutely would recommend this book!

Great item
I had never heard the real King Arthur tale. I enjoyed it tremendously! Sean Bean's narration of this tale is exquisite. His voice is perfect for books on tape. Such depth. You felt you were really there. I would recommend this to anyone!

Julie's Wolf Pack (Julie of the Wolves)
I really liked all three of the books in the Julie series. I liked all the information they had about life in the Arctic Circle, and found these stories very believable. I liked learning about why dogs/wolves behave the way that they do. I would recommend these books to anyone. Hunter 10

Dear Tooth Fairy11 reviews
Alan Durant
Walker Books Ltd, 2003
What a great book!
My 5 year old son lost his 1st tooth. When we went to look for Tooth Fairy books he didn't like all the "fairies". He wouldn't even consider this book because it was pink. I started reading it and loved it. When I read it to him at home he LOVED it! He got so excited to open the envelopes in the book. He had me play the riddler that came with over and over again. His eyes lit up when he ...

I was given this book when I was around 8 or 9 years old, it has been many years and sadly to say my copy was lost to me a couple years ago. It is one of my favorite books and I am currently awaiting my chance to read it again. This book is about overcoming everyday fears, growing pains and facing yourself as well as the world, plus its about a horse..how could you go wrong :) Great read for any ...

Sterling, 2001
Really good. REALLY really good.
I have a sister who can't keep her hands off my things. I have really tried hard to be nice but my parents think I'm picking on her if I complain because she is smaller. So when I saw this in the book store I figured it had to be for me. I am so glad I found this book. It is filled with great ideas about hiding what you own and about making great projects too. You will be able to turn any little ...

Look-Alike Book
My Grandson had checked out a couple of the Look-Alike books from the Library. He really liked them, so I decided to get him one for his 5TH birthday. He really enjoys finding the look alike objects in the pictures, and spends a long time for a five year old doing so.

Dutton Juvenile, 1995
The simple things in life
I thought that this book was adorable and very sweet. It's perfect for all ages and it makes you notice the simple things in life and that sometimes people make things more complicated than they need to be. Winnie the Pooh definetly has the best advice on how to live a wonderful life and realize what is really important - friendship.

The Culdesac Kids series is great for young readers.
I bought the book for my neice who is 8 years old and just finished 2nd grade. She didn't really like to read before. She didn't find
books that were her reading level or were scary or boring. She loved the characters, the stories, and the reading level (8-12 yrs) helped her to improve her reading. She loves to read it before bed every night. Books 1-6 are about a group of kids who develop ...

39 Progressive Solos For Classical Guitar - Book 2 - Book/Cassetts Pack (Thirty-Nine Progressive Solos for ...8 reviews
Ben Bolt
Cherry Lane Music, 1999
The Tite should be 27 progressive solos for Classical Guitar
I enjoyed this book and the CD. It's good. However I feel short-changed because it's only 27 progressive solos and not 39. You have to get the remaining 12 solos in Book II.
Dear Mr Ben Bolt, it would be great if you or your publisher did not misguide buyers with such a title.
I still give it a 5 star rating regardless....

AB roxxors
Geek that he is, I thought it would be appropriate to title this review "AB roxxors." I own these books but I did not purchase them in this bundle.
...More Food is AB's baking book. If you've never baked before, this is a very important manual. It's a manual, not a cookbook. Between its covers you will find everything a beginning baker needs to know to produce great results every time. It also ...

As a parent and teacher I highly recommend this book. Not only does it provide sound explanations of skills from A to Z, it also presents a rich array of fun-filled, creative activities to support the young learner across the curriculum. We'll be celebrating Language Arts, Science, Math, and Social Studies together with the help of this book. This book is fabulous!!!

The Unbelievable Bubble Book8 reviews

Klutz Press, 1987
Bubbling with enthusiasm!
I'm over 50 years old and, while visiting my Mother, I started playing with some bubble making toys she had left out for the kids. Bored, I started making some make-shift bubble wands out of coat hangers to see how big a bubble I could make. It was a lot of fun but, because of the bubble solution, I was limited to bubbles of about a foot in diameter. I went on line to try and search out ...

Stadium Arcadium Bass Sheet Music
This is a great book! I've been playing bass for 3 years now and this is a really fun way to spend my free time. The cds are also a great addition; they really help out a lot if Flea's bass licks throw you for a loop. It's also just fun to play along with the CD's because they threw John in also. Also, if you can't read music, don't worry. Personally I'm a fan of reading actual music for ...

Pop Up!: A Manual of Paper Mechanisms7 reviews
Duncan Birminham
Tarquin, 1999
One of the best!
For anyone interested in making pop-ups, this book should be on their work table.
What I especially like about it is, the many simple sketches of the pieces and how they are applied particularly in the more complex figures, where clarity is needed and often times not as well done in other books on the subject. I have bought more than one to give to friends that work in this area as well.
