Pipe Cleaners Gone Crazy: A Complete Guide to Bending Funny Sticks

9 reviews
Peter Fox

Klutz, 1997

Highly recommended for little kids!
I bought this book on a whim -- I wanted a quiet indoor activity that my 7 year old niece and my mom could do together. My niece absolutely LOVED this book. She was old enough to know how to read, and young enough to enjoy doing little crafty projects -- I think that's a key combination to how much a child will like this book. She could figure out the directions herself, and she and my mom ...

Laura Antoniou, Cecilia Tan, ...

Mystic Rose Books, 2000

A wonderful idea that is done very very well.
Laura Antoniou had a great idea: her Marketplace series was so popular and fans wanted so much more, why not continue the story but also allow others to create their own Marketplace pieces? The result is the wonderful story of the Marketplace worldwide meeting with the intriguing Kris Parker as the main character. We also meet older slaves, trainers, and owners, and those somewhere in between ...

2 reviews
Rosita Arvigo, Michael Balick

Lotus Press, 1993

user friendly accurate guide
Being a student of rainforest medicinal plants myself, I found this book one of the best, published or unpublished, to-date. The drawings are excellent, making field identification easy. The presentation of both the common and scientific names of plants is invaluable. I found it interesting that the Carribean people of Belize and the Carribean people of Costa Rica (where I am) use the same ...

I loved this Book..........
I've always love BTVS because of the Mythology of the Slayer line and how she's Chosen and all of that, I also love the characters and how they're written so well.....But i've often wondered about Past Slayers, what they were like, and what their life was like because as we've always known, Buffy is just one of many Slayers throughout the Years.

A Walk Down Memory Lane
Having been a detail artist decorating Tournament of Roses parade floats for 20 years, this is truly a magnificent "behind the scenes" look at what it takes to make the Rose Parade the greatest parade of all time! Seeing pictures and reading descriptions of people and floats that I spent many an hour with was a very pleasant stroll back in time!

The Big White Lie: The Deep Cover Operation That Exposed the CIA Sabotage of the Drug War : An Undercover ...

6 reviews
Michael Levine, Laura Kavanau-Levine

Thunder's Mouth Pr, 1994

Was This Book "Privished?"
Note that this review is 4 years after publication... four years of silence. A book that tears the mask off the fraudulent "War on Drugs". It exposes the growth of the war from two (highly mutually destructive) agencies in 1971 (Customs and DEA) to 55 and counting. It describes very extensive, high-volume CIA involvement in smuggling itself to obtain unaccountable funding. It documents the ...
