4-0 out of 5 stars Ignore all other reviews!
I beleive that the other reviews were written by furious begginer artists whom had tried a few times and were uspset with their results.It takes time to learn how to draw and drawing simple shapes such s circles is not as easy as it is made out to be! I don't think this book could be made any simpler and is perfect for the begginer.
3-0 out of 5 stars finsh my ok reveiw
When I tried to draw Lugu I traced it better than I drew it fowolling the steps.For people who think other people didn't try hard enough well I tried for 5 hours and still my tracing came out better.Finaly I gave up.It was to hard. If you like to trace pokemon this is a great book.

5-0 out of 5 stars AIR GUITAR HEAVEN FOR MY 5, 6 & 8 YEAR OLDS. THEY LOVE THIS CD/BOOK - ROCK ON!
I almost can't believe that some reviewers are so critical. My kids don't know the writer/illustrator from a hole in the wall -- but I have to re-play the Bacon Brother's "Pots and Pans" and that other hot rockin' tune that has something to do with broccoli(eieieieie!) over and over.My three kids have formed their own backseat air guitar/drums/whatever band, they've memorized the lyrics, they're getting along and, when I gaze back at them, they're NOT brain frozen, dull eyed focussed on a little screen tv watching a video.Movin' and Groovin', baby.I love it, so do they. ROCK ON, DOG TRAIN!

5-0 out of 5 stars Rejoice, Boomers.Rock 'n' Roll is hear!
Tired of listening to your G'childs "Wee-sings" & Raffi? Do we really have to listen to these again...& again & again
5-0 out of 5 stars Great sequel!
This book delivered exactly what I expected from a sequel to Philadelphia Chickens and Rhinoceros Tap (as well as Pigorian Chants). The kids just love it and the songs and music are good to listen to for adults as well. While they can be silly, they are contemporary and inspire, rather than grind on your nerves like some other kids song books. Definitely worth a look and listen many times over. ... Read more

2-0 out of 5 stars Not near as good as "Zoom"
If you have never seen any books by this author before then I would recommend purchasing "Zoom".It's amazing which made me slightly disappointed with this one.I was hoping it would be just as good as the first but it was harder to follow and wasn't as fun to look at.I wish I had not bought it.

5-0 out of 5 stars Even Better Than Zoom
Once again Istvan Banyai takes your perception on a roller coaster ride. This amazing sequel is even better than Zoom. Thoroughly enjoyable and could also be used as part of a motivational speech on seeing things as they are and aren't. Perception isn't always reality.

4-0 out of 5 stars Second generation of Zoom
I bought this book at the same time as I bought Zoom.Both are great books for getting people to think outside the box, but for some reason, I still like the original Zoom best.Still a good book though. ... Read more

4-0 out of 5 stars Great, but only as a companion piece....
Like many, I am not a huge Star Wars geek.I've seen (and own) all of the films, but couldn't tell you half of the characters names, or get into a deep, nerdy converstation about them.However, I want to learn, so I picked this book up (after giving it a quick thumb through) assuming that it would be a Star Wars encyclopedia of sorts.
3-0 out of 5 stars Binding mistakes
The contents were good, but 12 pages (pages 109-120)are binded reversed i.e. upside down and backwards.Poor quality control at the printer.

5-0 out of 5 stars What a great Star Wars book!
This book is great for anyone who loves Star Wars.It has information on all six episodes, and some stuff in between.It helped me understand the movies better.Zane, age 9. ... Read more

4-0 out of 5 stars good
I love transformers and this book bigng me good memories, is a good book.
4-0 out of 5 stars NOT QUITE ULTIMATE BUT STILL VERY GOOD.
Over twenty years after arriving on American soil the Transformers continue to be one of the most popular toy lines.But more than just a toy line, with some dozen different animated series counting both in the states and in Japan, as well as multiple comic book series, the Transformers also has a rich and colorful history.The Transformers Ultimate Guide covers the toys, comics, and animated shows in this 144 page book that begins with a history of Cyberton and the eons long battle between Primus & Unicron, the light and dark side of the same coin.The book is written by long time Transformers writer Simon Furman.We'll learn of the very first Transformer named Prima, and the civil war on Cybertron, led by Megatron against the unsuspecting Autobots.Sentinel Prime was the first Autobot leader and would be killed by Megatron, and pass on the Matrix to the Transformer who become known as Optimus Prime.A timeline traces the Autobot/Decepticon war right up and including their eventual crash on Earth millions of years ago.
5-0 out of 5 stars Robots in Disguise
I was skeptical that this book could deliver, but on opening the cover was immediately drawn in by its graphic spreads and the marriage of art and type. No one could hope to chronicle the multifarious incarnations of Takara's transforming toys; but someone has. No one could untangle all the plot threads weaving through the saga of Cybertron; but someone did. No one could possibly provide an engrossing account of Hasbro's marketing variations or its Sunbow division's many animated series; no one except Furman, himself an astute observer and able author of Transformer comics.

5-0 out of 5 stars Must read, but not all praise
If you were ever interested in card counting this book is for you. Not because it guarantees the edge against the casino with 10 simple rule, because it doesn't, but because it outlines several good strategies to maintain a small edge (or in some cases a smaller disadvantage) over the casino establishment.
2-0 out of 5 stars Mixed feelings
Great book on this classic strategy. Thorp got even richer using a similar system in the stock market. (Although it was during the bull years...)

5-0 out of 5 stars Simply amazing
This book is an enchanting and fun way to learn how to draw dragons and other mythical creatures. It helped me a lot in my art with it's easy to follow instructions and beautiful illustrations. Jessica Peffer really knows what she is doing and this book is really well organized. A truely amazing book.

4-0 out of 5 stars A Wonderful Way To Learn How To Draw!
As far as drawing can go, this has to be one of the most helpful books out there. I must admit that I am a dragon-obsessed freak, but you don't have to like dragons or fantasy art in order to like this book.
5-0 out of 5 stars Simply Amazing.
I found this book to be extremely helpful.The author of this book did an amazing job with the illustrations and breaking down the steps where they are able to be followed to the finished product.As far as drawing books go, this was one of the far more helpful and I was thrilled with gaining insight on how to draw the more complicated anatomical features of the fantasy creatures, such as wings with feathers.I suggest this book to anyone who is interested in fantasy drawing, but cannot seem to pinpoint certain features such as feathers, horns, or tails.

5-0 out of 5 stars Two thumbprints up for this book!
Love this little book! My 3 year old son hasmade pictures with his fingerprints at his preschool. This isa great way for children to express themselves by making their fingerprints into any number of little animal or other creatures. I bought this book for us to make projects with at home. I thought it would be great for his little thank you notes to relatives. My son loves this book. If you decide to buy this book, you will not be dissapointed. I also enjoyed using this myself as an adult.

4-0 out of 5 stars A GOOD STARTING PLACE FOR KIDS TO DRAW
I purchased this book to use in two art camps.One was focused on printmaking and the other on cartooning.Once students open the book they were eager to try out the fingerprint illustrations and began looking for particular animals they wanted to illustrate.The book is colorful and appealing and provides a good starting place for kids to draw with ready success 'at their fingertips.' The only problem we encountered was the need for fine line marker for details as their fingerprints are small and their drawings were less successful if the marker they used was too thick or bled.

5-0 out of 5 stars My 5 yo daughter LOVED this book.
We gave my 5 yo daughter this book, some washable kid's ink pads and a sketchbook this weekend for her 5th birthday.She LOVES it.She drew some pretty amazing pictures last night with just a little help to work through the steps.I'm sure she'll be creating masterpieces all on her own in no time!

5-0 out of 5 stars Great Introduction to Art for Kids
I purchased this book for my kids who were 6 and 10 at the time.I was pleasantly surprised by the scope and variety of art covered in this book.Several well-chosen (nothing gory or disturbing to children) pieces of art are presented in nice, full color reproductions.The authors then point out various interesting things about the piece and ask fun questions about it.All of this serves to help children not just "look" at art, but to enjoy it and appreciate it.
5-0 out of 5 stars Fabulous!!
I bought this book for my grandchildren, a boy and a girl ages 2 1/2 and 5.Not only are they thrilled with it, their parents are enchanted.This book should be read by everyone!It's a marvelous primer and guide to the world of art, with pictures of some of the world's most famous art treasures and amazingly interesting explanations of why these particular pieces have endured.If you want your children or grandchildren to learn about what makes art relevant, this is the book for them!It should be sold in every art museum in the world.
5-0 out of 5 stars We LOVE this book!
I was slightly reluctant at first to purchase this book - I thought it might not be one of our son's favorites at bedtime (4 1/2 years old). (He's your typical boy - loves books about cars, tractors, dump trucks, etc) Boy, was I wrong!The first night we sat down to read it, we both had a blast!This book does such a nice job of explaining art to children, in terms that he understands, that he was excited about reading it the next night.We went through the book the first time just flipping pages to look at the artwork, and stopping to read the details of the ones he found interesting at first.It was fun for me as a parent to learn what he finds interesting in art.I would recommend this book 100%! ...

5-0 out of 5 stars A fast-paced thriller
Fans of Balliett's prior CHASING VERMEER will be delighted to see the sleuths Petra and Calder return in this sequel, THE WRIGHT 3, which covers another mystery involving a Frank Lloyd Wright architectural masterpiece. A class attempt to save a landmark from demolition results in supernatural influences as ghosts seem to be protecting hidden treasure. Add a coded message and you have a fast-paced thriller filled with twists and turns of plot.

2-0 out of 5 stars Everything's in place for a great story, but it never happens
I thought I'd give this author's second book a chance even though I found her first one ("Chasing Vermeer") rather disappointing. I like her Hyde Park setting, I like the way she works art into her stories, I like the way the teacher in the book runs her classroom as a place of exploration rather than a lecture hall. So--I thought, thought I--maybe with all these strong elements in place, the author will improve her plotting abilities in her second book.
5-0 out of 5 stars If you likedChasing Vermeer
I call Chasing Vermeer a Da Vinci Code for kids.The Wright 3 brings us the same children again, with another mystery to solve.The 3 sleuths are in one place now, and we have the conflicts that come with pairs becoming a trio.The mystery involves the Robie House, a Frank Lloyd Wright house on the University of Chicago campus.Although the threatened dividing of this house between 3 museums is not true, everything else about the setting (as in Chasing Vermeer) is real. The hidden man in the Robie house is also true! ... Read more

1-0 out of 5 stars Disappointed in Quality of Binding
As a parent of 3 boys who love Star Wars, we are constantly purchasing books.We have always purchased them at Borders (or stores of the like).This was the first time I purchased a book on-line thru Amazon.Within ONE MONTH the binding came unglued.This has never occured with any of the other Star Wars books we've purchased.My boys are very protective of their books and take care of them.We now have a book with the hard-cover off and I AM EXTREMELY DISAPPOINTED and due to this do not plan on purchasing online thru Amazon if this is the quality I am to expect in the future.

5-0 out of 5 stars Love it!
My wife and I were always interested in the worlds/locations that were visited briefly in the movies, and now we have the abiltiy to read about them in more detail and to see them in more detail!Love the book!

This book shows everything you ever wanted to know about the Star Wars saga.It's an amazing artistic view of the locations with intricately drawn 3-D maps as well as colorful pictures.It adds reality to what you see on the screen.I highly recommend this authoritative book to be a key part of your Star Wars library. ...

5-0 out of 5 stars easily understand the engineering of structures
i love this book! it truly explains why buildings behave the way they do and why they are built the way they are. it takes complicated engineeriing and makes it simple, very simple. every principle has an easy to follow sketch and example. this book is a must for architects, engineers, builders or anyone who wants to go behind the scenes and understand the 'why' of buildings. many of the principles and examples only apply to large scale commercial projects like high rises and bridges, so it may not be pertinent for the home builder, but i'd still recommend it. i love to understand why i build houses a certain way. this book explains basic building principles.

5-0 out of 5 stars Inspiring
A dear friend gave me this book for my ninth birthday back in 1990. Today, I am a structural engineering associate with a major forensic engineering firm, and I know that much of my fascination with the field began with Salvadori's riveting explanations of the basic principles of structural design. This book is incredible for any kid with any scientific inclination!

5-0 out of 5 stars If it had been around...

5-0 out of 5 stars the WOWWEE factor............
Everyone says WOW when I show them this book!
5-0 out of 5 stars Wonderful Book!
I took my 1 year old to a bookstore to get her some books and music. The title "One Red Dot" caught my attention and imagine my amazement when I opened the book! I showed it to my daughter, she got so excited she tried to touch the pop up shapes. Sadly, some child loved the book so much that they tore up some of the pop ups and there weren't any more copies available at the store. As soon as I put it back on the shelf, my daughter started howling because she wanted it and she wouldnt stop screaming until we got to the car! Needless to say, I am going to order this book for her!

5-0 out of 5 stars Everyone loves this!
I bought this for my 5 year old son, because he is definitely a "color outside the lines" kid. When he started Kindergarten his teacher told me that he doesn't color in the lines (well, we never made him, we love his free spirit coloring). Anyway, he has never liked your traditional coloring books and I thought these might be a good way to help him color in the lines but still let him use his imagination. (I bought both the Doodles and Scribbles by the way). These are just awesome. WELL worth the price! My son loves them, my husband loves them, and I love them. The added unforeseen plus was that it has made some great bonding time when we sit and do these books with our son. The only complaint I would have (and believe me, this is very minor) is that I wish the books lay flat when open, maybe like a spiral binding instead of a regular book binding. Other than that, they are awesome. I highly recommend these!

5-0 out of 5 stars Excellent Product
My kids and I love "Doodles".Since receiving my copy, I've suggested it to several friends and all of them have picked up a copy as well.The drawings are fun and my kids are always entertained and challenged...great for car trips or anywhere you and your kids are stuck sitting around waiting.

5-0 out of 5 stars Excellent book, well worth its price
Your kids will never need another coloring book!This is a huge book that will keep the kids very entertained at home on a rainy day or in the car.And it's so much more than a coloring book; it's an activity book that even younger children can use.One example of what's in the book, there are four pages each with the exact same landscape.At the top of each page is a different "direction."One says "it's spring," the next "summer," the next "fall" and the last "winter is finally here." Great for fostering creativity and highly recommended. ... Read more

3-0 out of 5 stars Could have been Better for Those in the Know
For those in the know, the book suffers for want of careful editing. It is flawed, for example, by illustrator David Diaz' arrogance in placing his own designs on Quezada's pottery. Had this book been about van Gogh, Picasso or any other well-known artist, it is unlikely he would have portrayed their art with no concern for what it looked like in reality. This puts down Juan Quezada. Diaz also carelessly depicts Quezada building a pot by the continuous-coil method of the Indians of the American Southwest rather than by the distinctive method that he innovated and for which he is known. Better editing would have caught these problems with the illustrations as well as a multitude of minor inaccuracies that occur in the text, nearly one to a page. For example, in speaking of using a bean to burnish pottery, the author comments, "Of course dried beans can be found in any kitchen in the village." The bean in question is an inedible wild bean, the chilicote-not the kind that would normally be found in anyone's kitchen. Such editorial problems do not, however, detract from this production as a children's book. They are the sort that only one in the know would see.

5-0 out of 5 stars My kid is obsessed with this book
The absorbing subject matter of this book, presented through catchy rhymes and alliteration and strong, colorful illustrations, has completely captured the imagination of my four-year-old.For three days now, he's been "Juan" almost exclusively, following ants to a vein of "the very best clay, all squishy and white," pretending to make vessels for every conceivable purpose, and peppering me with questions about Mexico, pottery-making, and Juan himself.I've had to draw the line at cutting my hair for paintbrushes and gathering the "dried cow manure" left by the neighborhood dogs."The Pot That Juan Built" appeals to pre-schoolers' burgeoning interest in rhyme and other aspects of language; making things out of simple materials; and the world around them generally.I give it my highest recommendation!

5-0 out of 5 stars Excellent, Beautiful Book!
I'm appalled at the lack of love for this book!I am a teacher of a 3rd grade classroom in California where my children are learing about how humans use the world around them to create their life and build their culture.This book is a perfect tie-in to this concept.The illustrations are beautiful and I found the rhymes to be intelligent and descriptive.Two thumbs up from me, and 48 thumbs up from my class!! ...

5-0 out of 5 stars Budding fashion designers will love it!
This is an excellent book that my 12 year old daughter, and ALL her friends have truly enjoyed.The book comes with stencils for outfits.It also comes with patterned paper to use for the outfits.It has a great selection of paper.The paper is similar to scrapbook paper but seems specially designed for the small outfits as the patterns on the paper go well with small outfits.Finally, it has some wire hangers - sized to fit the outfits.The girls have had hours of fun with this book.My daughter glues all the outfits into a notebook, and the friend who designed it "signs" the page.My only wish is that there was an address or phone number where you could order additional paper packs.While Klutz is generous when they give you the paper, my kids are using it a LOT!Her 8 year old sister enjoys it too.It is suitable for any age that is very good with scissors.The outfits are quite small.I plan to purchase some of these to use as birthday gifts to have on hand.This is one of the best activity books we've purchased.

5-0 out of 5 stars Great for kids and adults!
I bought this book as a activity to share with my neice who is 8.We both loved it.The book is full of inspiration and helpful tips like how to use your finished creations and also how to use scissors more accurately and how to glue without making a mess.The papers and accents they supply are really nice and the fashion stencils are perfectly engineered.It comes with everything you need except the scissors.I enjoyed it so much that I bought another copy for myself and for some of my crafty friends who love fashion.I really think this is a great craft book and I've recommended it to many friends.The Klutz products are always clever but this one is really special. ...
