For anyone who used the AAOS's "Orange Book" for their EMT-B course, this book, under the Brady name, is a good book to have because you get a different perspective on the same things. Of course, the Brady series has always been solid anyway.

Explore Western Europe is a consumable, educational activity book intended especially for children. A wide variety of activities that teach children ages 4 to 8 some basic facts about Western Europe including pictures and flags that can be colored, mazes to solve, grids that aid in drawing, quizzes, word finds for capital cities, and much more. The solutions to the puzzles are all in the back of the book. Explore Western Europe is an enriching and recommended activities book for rainy day fun, long car trips, or for something to do when there's nothing worthwhile on television!

I've compiled my experience through Western Europe into a "Travel Activity Book" that brings social studies, history, geography and seven languages to children 4-8 years through activity games making learning fun. "Playful Learning" is the key. No other activity book teaches kids about the world in this way. Most activity books have 4-5 different activities, Explore Western Europe has 31 different activities that brings out the essence of whats actually there. From running with the bulls in Pamplona and winning the Tour de France, to finishing the Mona Lisa and climbing the Leaning Tower of Pisa. Its a fun-filled experience, i know, I lived it.

Theres a great big world out there, EXPLORE it!

My Brownie Troop is using this book to prepare for "Thinking Day" - a day Girl Scouts learn about other countries and cultures. The book is full of activities that first graders love - mazes (Istanbul landmarks), color by number (a ceramic plate), hidden pictures (the Dolmabahce Palace), connect the dots (the Blue Mosque), etc. The girls will have a fun time learning about Turkey and it was soooo easy for me, their leader! My daughter can't wait for our "Turkey meeting"!

I was thrilled when I discovered "Exploring Turkey". I think it is really important for children to learn about different places and cultures in the world. Filled with fun activities for children, it is a great introduction to a culture full of so many things. I have used the book as a learning tool during the holidays. Children love it.

This book is great! My three and one year old love this book! It is a great way to teach them animals, the sounds they make and now my three year old is reading a few of the words. It is great!

This book is great. It is huge, measures 11" by 11". It contains 10 pop-up animals and the pop-ups are enormous. There is a sentence saying something about each pop-up animal as well. My daughter loves this book. She has learned all the animals and the sounds they make because she "reads" through this book all the time. I highly recommend it.

The image on the first page of this book is probably the most vivid portrayal of the barnyard rooster in children's literature.

This scene is a triumph of the illustrator's art. The use of transparent overlays is superbly done. The reverse side of each "film" reveals another aspect to the scene. We see the duck diving in the pond, her bottom in the air. Turn the page and we see what's going on under the water.

This classy book has an unashamedly Continental style with an almost earthy flavour. What a great way to introduce children to the "facts of life". We see the mating rituals of the farmyard poultry together with cows, sheep and pigs all seen suckling their young.

This would have to be one on the most sophisticated "picture books" ever published. The text that accompanies the pictures is simple but very intelligent.

The vividness of Sylvaine Perols' illustrations will linger in a child's memory for a long time.

My son showed a keen interest in farm animals, and this book tops them all! Intelligently written text, classic illustrations and beautiful use of the clear pages for which First Discovery Books are known contribute towards an excellent presentation. The book details life cycles of animals, feeding habits, domestic uses, and includes explanations of the various names any one animal species can have which are confusing for children (and adults!) such as ram, ewe, lamb, etc. Informative, well put together. Highly recommended.

This book is filled with so many ideas for useful fun projects. I am not a techy person but love new materials. Each project is explained in great detail so that it is hard to make a mistake and easy to learn. I also love the style, characters and designs that Syuzi has created. I am recommending it to my students as a fun way to learn the basics of new materials and technologies.

I just received this book today and I am already impressed. Syuzi has a great chapter on how to use a DMM (digital multimeter), she even has a step by step proper placement of the probes to test for Voltage, Amps, Current and Ohms.

Book is full of very interesting projects with good step by step instructions and photos for each project.

I first came across Syuzi on TV, she was on Craftlab (HGTV). I decided to try one of the projects she demonstrated on the program. It was the "Rock N Roll" speakers, she covers them in this book starting on page 149. The speaker project was fun to do and turned out well. I actually made the speakers for my Grandson.

If you enjoy crafting are willing to learn simple electronics, Syuzi will get you hooked on "smart crafting". Every time I think of a new project, I now find myself trying to incorporate some form of electronics into my work.

I am definitely impressed with Syuzi's book, she has a gift for teaching.

This book is actually the only biik that does Cubase SX 3 any justice, from start to finish, it gets to the point (No long talking, Jamaican term for short and to the point.

I recomend it to all user trying to learn Cubase it lessens the learning curve.

I find this a facinating book that helps to quickly knock down the learning curve of Cubase SX. To me it's easier to digest than the manual supplied with Cubase. I have Cubase 1.0 and Cubase Studio 4, it seems to be adequate for this and in between. From setting up your first audio or midi recording, to editing, to mastering, it seems to cover all aspects in a reasonable sized book. I can't think of much that could be done to improve it. I highly recommend this for anyone who has a desire to dive into computer based recording. It even give brand name mic and interface hardware recommendations. I sat down at a local national bookstore and combed over 3 different guides to Cubase and this one clearly excelled, prompting me to purchase it. This is one I never lend out!

Chawla's book gives an excellent overview of digital and analog video and lists the necessities for optimizing your Macintosh and FCP in a quick and easy language and, more importantly, explains the whys of how things work. I also found the index referencing to be in good working order with easy to find listings. And the book goes over filter effects (left untouched by previous publishers) as well as the basics of importing/exporting alternative media and sound as well as how to incorporate them into your video editing.

I am a digital video producer by trade and this booked proved to me that I really don't know as much as I thought I did. It is simple to understand, but incredibly useful and informative. It will always be kept close to my editing station as an invaluable reference. It has already saved me from a making a couple of mistakes, that I had been making for years. YOU NEED THIS BOOK!
