Artists on Comics Art1 review
Mark Salisbury

Titan Books, 2002

Coolest book at the Comic Book shop.
I highly recommend this book. It's like eavesdropping on the conversations between the interviewer and the 11 famous comic book artists! The artists really open up and show thier human side, which include career struggles, fears, and life goals. They share what it was like as newbies to the comic book business, and how they dealt with obstacles in the work place, and in thier personal life. As an ...

Mark Salisbury

Newmarket, 2005

Great behind the scenes
Watch Video Here: http://www.amazon.com/review/RGOOLA3UHIV8J This book is more of a movie companion book than an artbook, although there's plenty of art to look at. The book's divided into 3 parts: Part 1 - Land of the Living Part 2 - Land of the Dead Part 3 - Going Upstairs, The Illustrated Story You know those behind the scenes videos from movie DVDs? This book is essentially that, ...

Burton on Burton27 reviews
Tim Burton

Faber & Faber, 1995

The Man, The Myth, The Legend... THE BOOK.
As one can tell, not only am I truly a Tim Burton fan, but I am also a fan of this well put together ensemble of musings from a person I believe is one of the greatest director's and cinematic visionaries of his time. So in one sense, one might say that I could be biased that I am already a Burton fan. However, as an avid book reader, the subject matter is extremely intriguing and the editorial ...

Josefina's Cook Book: A Peek at Dining in the Past With Meals You Can Cook Today (American Girls Collection)3 reviews
Tamara England

Pleasant Company Publications, 1998

Try It, You'll Like It!
Josefina's Cookbook has a variety of foods that are common in the traditional New Mexican diet. New Mexican food is unique to the region and includes items that are not even in the Hispanic diet in neighboring states. In a state whose State Question is "Red or Green?" (as in "Do you prefer red or green chile?"), caution must be taken in trying new foods if you are sensitive to spicy-hot foods, ...
  
  











  



  
A Trip to the Hospital (Little Bill)1 review
Kim Watson

Simon Spotlight/Nickelodeon, 2001

A Wonderful Book
I bought this book for my daughter before she turned two. We loved watching Little Bill when it was still on TV, and this book has stood the test of time. My daughter is now six and still loves to read it, though not as often.
  
  











  



  
Writers on Comics Scriptwriting, Vol. 17 reviews
Mark Salisbury

Titan Books, 2002

Very good for the starting comic book writer
I was hesitant about buying this book because normally books about comic writing just feature the script and no commentary from the author themselves. This has both. I wish the interview section was a little more in depth but it gives enough to show how it's done by some of the best in the business (I learned there is no proper way) and even hear about what inspires them when they write a story. ...

Jodi Evert

Pleasant Company Publications, 1994

A mixed bag
This interesting craft book is part of the American Girls Pastimes series, and focuses on the sort of crafts that would have been done during the time of Kirsten Larson, 1854. The book has five chapters, each with three or four crafts: A Frontier Household (braided mat, dried herbs and flowers, and onion-skin dye), A Stitch in Time (patchwork pillow, bunny pincushion, and quilted potholder), ...

Rebecca Sample Bernstein, Jodi Evert

Pleasant Company Publications, 1994

Fun Stuff
There are some unusual and fun projects included in this book. Most of them are fairly uncomplicated and many of the materials can be found around the house. The book also includes many interesting bits of historical information related to crafting, sewing, and life in general at the turn of the last century. I particularly liked the trinket box and the pressed flower bookmarks. Fun and ...
  
  











  



  
Addy's Craft Book: A Look at Crafts from the Past With Projects You Can Make Today (American Girls Collection)2 reviews

Pleasant Company Publications, 1994

Addy's Craft Book
This craft book makes for some interesting conversation. My daughter and I will make some of the craft items to share with others. This book is especially fun when you have a 'girls gathering'. The crafts give you an understanding of how girls of other time periods spent their time. Addy is a wonderful American Girl. I encourage everyone to read the stories about Addy, The American Girl!
  
  











  



  
Carved in Granite 21 review
Jesse Salisbury, Mark Marony, ...

SciArt Media, 2009

Nice mix of contemporary New Hampshire short story writers
But to the work at hand, I find these stories more prosaic in general than the ones in the first effort, yet all of them possessing a hook that holds your interest and imagination. Perhaps the word I would use to characterize the vignettes, with a couple of exceptions, is "gentle." Cowboy, the first story, you would think, from violent encounter recounted in the quote at the outset of my review, ...
