Eclectic list provides new reading treats
I consider myself fairly well read, so I was pleasently surprised to find many titles I have yet to read in this fun collection. The selection goes beyond survey English and includes many sci-fi and modern classics. If you are not sure what to read next, this deck of cards can point you in the right direction. It would aslo make a great gift for your favorite bibliophile!

Stumped at the Video Store?....
With this small deck of cards in my hand, I confidently entered our neighborhood video store for a taste of something completely different. If you've seen all the "new stuff" and have forgotten about or are overwhelmed by all the old titles, these cards are for you. My family and I can sit down beforehand, review the card suggestions, and have a few great ideas for our "movie night".

Muse in a Box
These little cards are great fun! Charmingly illustrated, they each offer an inspirational or practical tip to get your creative juices flowing. Yes, some of the ideas are a bit banal, but the variety of ideas and the clever format do help you to value your creative side and get inspired to create something. A half hour of reading these cards gave me a great jump-start on one of my stalled projects. These are great fun!

Great informational book
It appears this another great card series which was just published. I'm glad I got mine right away. I wish it were in the form of a book instead of cards, but nevertheless, the cards are great. They illustrated, well written and easy to follow. They offers many tips on how to pamper yourself in ways I never even dreamed about. The best part is that they're all affordable. It covers everything from spoiling yourself with foods, applying home remedies to your body for sofe and silky skin and hair, to steam baths and pedicures. There's lots more. I thought the little cards were great. You don't need to be rich, famous, or spoiled to treat yourself to a little (or a lot) of pampering. These cards prove that.

I agree with the other reviewer, I expected more...
This book has some nice pictures and a few diagrams but not enough content or variety. If you are looking for variety you may want to consider another book.
Not what I was hoping for
I thought this book would be helpful in helping me make good design decisions for creating a home office. Specifically how to decide what my needs are, how to design something that will fit my needs and then finally how to actually intergrate that into my home. Well, this book assumes that you've already done all those things before buying this book. This is not a design book, rather it gives you construction tips and shortcuts to making your "existing" plan a reality...not what I was hoping for.

Nice format, nothing really unusual
This set of things to do is in the format of a deck of mini cards, each of which contains a different Chicago experience. While there is certainly plenty of choice in this product, the content is very ordinary except for the traveler who has never been to Chicago before.

Not sure what I was getting
I was not clear on the fact by this page that I was to be getting adeck of cards with a child's book on each card, but I will tell you that I actually got a lot of great ideas off of the cards. In fact, I am ordering "If You Give a Mouse a Cookie" from one of the cards now. I had heard of this book a long time ago, but reading the card today made me remember it. There are a lot of other titles in there that I will be getting also! END
