Every time I make these party balls, they become a great source of conversation. What a great concept...it's elegance and easy wrapped up in delicious!

This is a fun and easy cookbook. A cookbook for all ages. The recipes are easy to follow and enjoyable to make.

Quick and fun projects including: granny square vest, curly trim hat, hat/scarf/mitten set, slippers, cross-hatch cardigan & headband, basketweave pullover, hooded parka, poncho & beret, tote bag, 3 purses (heart, round, and rectangle), granny square afghan, and hair curlies. Wonderful additions to a doll's wardrobe!

These doll clothes are easy to make - but they look really nice when they're done! Styles are fresh and new, they don't look dated. Really nice selection, especially the sweaters. Some of the patterns look complex, but they are very basic. My 9 year old daughter made one of the sweaters. The parka is adorable, and looks great on a teddy bear too.

This book is a great way to learn outdoor navigation. With the topographical map and grid reader that come with the book, you're ready to get started. I recommend this book to campers, hunters, hikers - anyone who ventures out into The Great Outdoors. Written in a very conversational tone, "Don't Get Lost' takes you through your lessons painlessly.

This book is the "total package." The map and grid reader that came with the book helped everything come together and make sense. The book explains many different methods of navigation with examples of each. The author has the ability to explain this confusing subject in easy to understand language. I can now hunt and hike in areas I have always been reluctant to explore before. I highly recommend this book to anyone who enjoys getting out in the woods.

This manual was a gift to my dad a few weeks back. He absolutely loves it. He calls it his bible, easy to find the stuff he looks for without flipping from page to page for references. He is going to buy one for a relative out of state. Thanks to the gifted author. Hope they write more says my dad.

I am an electrical contractor and was looking for an easy to follow manual on installation of electrical materials and a guide on how to prepare an electrical estimate. This book is the best and is very easy to follow. I wasn't flipping pages trying to grasp the material. I carry this book everywhere as my estimating bible and recommend it to everyone.

This was my first purchase from Amazon and was very pleased with the book and the speedy delivery of my cookbook. I've alreaydy made scrumptious meals out of it.
I will be ordering more books from Amazon.

Thank you,

The Ellis Island Immigrant Cookbook gives insight to the struggles of our ancestorial immigrants. Poingnat stories are revealed through their personal accounts as well as their recipes. It is a must read historical cookbook for those who wish to learn of our past.... and know how far we have come. (Thanksgiving Dinner has taken on a new meaning)

As a veteran of over forty years on Broadway as a scenic, lighting and projection designer, I can say without hesitation that there is no other resource more valuable than The Entertainment Sourcebook. This wonderful resource is compiled by the folk who do the hard, often unseen and unmentioned, work that make us with prominent program credits look good on opening night. Not only are the listings accurate, but they are constantly monitored by the members of ATAC, added to, and changed or eliminated when required. So you're always up-to-date. In this age of fast-paced change in "the business", it's extra vital to be well informed. I'd bet my Tony nominations on this book. In fact without it, I'd probably not have them. And a big "hat's off" to the people of ATAC who make this great ever changing resource possible.

The Association of Theatrical Artists and Craftspeople is the professional trade association of artists, designers and craftspeople who work in the industry - some of the most talented available - and their 2005 Entertainment Sourcebook is a 'must' for any serious theater production, outlining sources for jeweler's tools, specialized paints and dyes, theatrical supply houses, and much more. Listings display phone, fax and email contacts, include web sites, phones, hours and addresses, and add a synopsis of both payment methods holdings. Simply invaluable for any industry pro.

This book is still the benchmark manual for accurate man-hour takeoffs in the piping industry and the only improvement will be when it is published in a metric measurement version as well as this Imperial measurement standard. This manual is used in places other than the USA and the rest of the world is Metric.

I have used this book since the first addition and give it out to all new engineers coming into the pipeline industry, when they are envolved in costs for new piping projects.

I have used this book since 1986. It has been the cornerstone of my pipe estimating. It is easy to use and in most cases you can narrow a seemingly complicated estimating job down to a few tables. I recommend this book to any estimator charged with providing accurate budgets in industrial construction.
The book addresses carbon steel, stainless steel Heavy wall, large O.D. Staging, Insulation, Pipe Hangers and more.
The Author goes into detail in a clear and concise method about how to structure your estimate and provides a sample estimating sheet.
Even though the estimating sheet is about 30 yrs old. I have set one up in excel to match his format and it works beautifully.
A must book for any pipe estimator.

This book and CD set teach sight reading in a way that appeals to children. The fact that my daughter enjoys using this book means that it's easier to get her to practice playing every day.

This book is excellent for any age and is a great resource, I would recommend it to any age for use.

I have tried almost all of these recipes and each one tasted great. I love the fact that each recipe is low-fat AND tastes great. I've tried recipes on family and friends and no one was able to guess that it was low-fat. Everyone raved over them. I would buy one for all of my friends if I could afford to do so (but I don't want to give away all of my "secrets").

So far everything I have cooked from this cookbook has been excellent, easy to make and recipes are easy to follow. I would recommend this book to anyone!!

This book is wonderful....reading it is like talking to a good friend about holiday traditions. There are ideas for homemade gifts such as pancake mix, cookies in a jar, ornaments, and keepsakes. The recipes sound delicious and include items like an edible cookie bowl, Granny's Pot Roast, Caramel Apple Crisp, and Snickerdoodles. Build a fire, grab some hot cocoa, make some homemade gifts, and cook up some warm food for your family....this one is a hit!
