5.0 out of 5 stars Book with excellent designs and diagrams, 13 Dec 1998
By A Customer
I bought this book in Maine USA because I thought it summarised all that was good in American design of wooden toys. Having made one I can confirm that the plans are easy to follow and the results match the pictures. Very good value for the money.

5.0 out of 5 stars Making heirloom toys, 1 Feb 2008
By Mr. Brian R. Roberts "B. Roberts" (Worthing. UK) - See all my reviews
(REAL NAME)   
Having made wooden toys for a considerable number of years I am always on the look out for good books on the subject. This book is one of the best I've seen and do not hesitate in recomending it for both beginner and professional toy makers.

5.0 out of 5 stars Excellent book easy to use., 13 Jul 2008
By D. J. Wadsworth "Waddy" (Yorkshire England) - See all my reviews
(REAL NAME)   
I bought this book having recently become a Grandparent, along with 3 other similar books. I have now made 4 toys from this particular book and all will, I feel eventually become family heirlooms. The plans are easy to follow and accurate. The designs are well proportioned and all so far look great. I can recommend this as an excellent book. So buy it and enjoy working with wood and making some wonderfully fulfilling projects.
