Smart Soapmaking: The Simple Guide to Making Traditional Handmade Soap Quickly, Safely, and Reliably, or How ...33 reviews
Anne L. Watson

Shepard Publications, 2007

The Absolutely Best Book on Soapmaking
Smart Soapmaking is far and away the best book on making soap at home. I have several other books on the subject which, for me, are far too complicated and scientific. They make the process seem far too daunting, to the point where you give up before you start. Anne Watson has thoroughly explained everything in simple yet practical terms and has taken away completely the fear factor. Her book ...

Theatre Teachers: This Is What You Need
This book is formatted so easily, it took me MUCH less time than I thought it would to prepare a unit on reader's theatre for my class. I used it for my high school theatre class so they wouldn't have to concentrate on large vocabularies, but rather to deliver the story in a simple, easy way. It was a HUGE success of a project and this book made it possible. It tells you how long each story ...

Simple Sourdough: Make Your Own Starter Without Store-Bought Yeast and Bake the Best Bread in the World With ...8 reviews
Mark Shepard

Shepard Publications, 2008

Simple book, simple recipe, great taste
I need to pay attention so that I don't write in this review more than this book's content. Ok, I'm exaggerating a bit, but this is a brochure with 16 pages, left-side pages contain only some decorative drawings, and on the other 8 the writing is rather big and covers only 60% of the surface, so it feels very airy. I'm not saying this is good or bad, just that's the way it is. The book is ... 		  
  







  
  
Perfect Pages: Self Publishing with Microsoft Word, or How to Design Your Own Book for Desktop Publishing and ...28 reviews
Aaron Shepard

Shepard Publications, 2006

Hated the cover, but LOVED the content!
The cover looked home-made and hokey, so I really only purchased this book because of the enthusiatic reviews. I have to admit that this is a pleasant case of not being able to judge a book by its cover. The content is well organized and filled with great tips for layout and design. Definitely worth a read by self-published authors. J.D. Mosley-Matchett, Ph.D. Author of A month of ... 		  
  







  
  
How to Love Your Flute: A Guide to Flutes and Flute Playing, or How to Play the Flute, Choose One, and Care ...12 reviews
Mark Shepard

Shepard Publications, 1999

Great For Flutists
This book is informative, interesting and a great aid for a beginner, and perhaps for more advanced players, as well. It is full of very nteresting historical information and illustrations for wooden and bamboo flutes. As I am a rank beginner, I can only speak from that frame of reference. But I definitely think you should give it a try, if you are interested in playing the flute.

Shepard Publications, 2001

A source of joy
I have just started making flutes as a hobby, because I thought it would be interesting, and to knock out a few cheap Christmas presents for a myriad of nieces and nephews. I did not anticipate what a source of joy making flutes would be for its own sake. This book got me started and will remain the most senior of my teachers as long as I do this. What you do not find in its lines, you will find ...

A fantastic, motivating way to get kids to read and perform!
As an elementary school teacher and reading specialist, I've been thrilled by how much my students have enjoyed the chance to read and perform reader's theater. I would recommend Aaron Shepard's books to anyone interested in creative ways to teach literacy skills. The stories are fun, there are plenty of parts so that you can involve lots of kids, and they're also good for discussing story ...

The Atlantis Dialogue: Plato's Original Story of the Lost City, Continent, Empire, Civilization10 reviews
Plato

Shepard Publications, 2001

Interesting
It is really interesting to read the old good Plato. He lived so many ages before ours but the story he writes about is much older. According to Plato Atlantis has been destroyed as a result of violent earthquake that was brought by gods upon the city as a punishment for their greed and corruption. Whether the story is true or not, the message is universal and timeless... The reading was ... 		  
  







  
  
Mahatma Gandhi and His Myths: Civil Disobedience, Nonviolence, and Satyagraha in the Real World (Plus Why ...2 reviews
Mark Shepard

Shepard Publications, 2002

Insightful and Enlightening
This is a short but powerful story that clears the air of many common misconceptions surrounding Mahatma Gandhi and Satyagraha. Even if you have done some prior study as I have about Gandhi, this book will still clarify many major areas of his work and give some insight into his own actions and works which seemingly run counter to his own professions of ideology. The mysteries are revealed in ...

Best Book Out There!
"Aiming at Amazon" by Aaron Shepard is my favorite book right now because I successfully used it to create my already written book, "The Magi of Futurity", and have it listed on Amazon. After checking with others and reading the reviews for Aaron's book, I was very impressed and couldn't wait to order it. Within two months after reading this book, along with Aaron's "Perfect Pages" book, I had ...

delivers what it promises
WHAT IS THIS BOOK First off, you should understand what you're buying: You're buying a PDF file that can be viewed in Acrobat, printed, etc. It will take several hours for your order to go through (why, Amazon??) and you will be sent an email with a download link. The document, this file, is 12 pages long. A total of 3 pages in this book will have nothing to do with making sourdough bread (cover, ...
