The Handy Science Answer Book

Visible Ink Press, 1997

Good for reference or a good read
The topics presented in The Handy Science Answer Book are very well explained. It's a great book for anyone interested in science. When I first got the book at age 13, I thought I'd use it mainly as reference. As I read more of it I decided to just read straight through. Every topic was something I'd always wanted to know a little more about.

For your little Handy Manny Fan
If you know someone who's a fan of Handy Manny this is as really cute board book that gets your child involved with using some of Handy Manny's tool friends and it starts right on the cover of this board book with Pat patting a raised nail head. The board book has raised edges that keep the tools moving and makes a lite tapping sound. This book says it's for ages 3 and up and I think that's ...

The one book you can't knit without
If you ever needed just one knitting book, this is it. This is like having milk and butter and eggs in the fridge. You can't make anything without it. there is a good solid foundation of pattern, technique and freedom of design. I also highly value all the gauges that are provided, because I never have the yarn for the pattern, or vice versa. It takes a lot of guesswork and frustration out of ...

Lina Beard

The Derrydale Press, 2002

A book of exuberant charm
Sure, it might be a little outdated, but it's a great glimpse into a past time. And today's kids would probably enjoy the chance to do some old-fashioned things described in this book, like making their own hammock or refurbishing some old furniture. The instructions for painting and drawing and basic and useful, and many of the ideas presented are things forgotten about and could stand ...
