This book was received for free from LibraryThing’s Early
Reviewers in return for a review.
A book that provides life skills for a wide range of topics
with everything from stain removal to curing hiccups. Divided into sections
each topic carries do’s and don’ts as well as labeled diagrams to illustrate
each step. This is helpful for those who learn better through visuals rather
than by text alone.
Compact for storage, there’s a great section called “How to
Read this Book” as it’s not meant to be read front to back but instead used
when the situation arises. And if you think you’re already skilled enough and
wouldn’t glean anything new from this book there is a great way to slice onions
included inside.
There is room for improvement though. Some topics reference
other skills and use section numbers when really page
numbers would be more
helpful. As well, like activities should be grouped together. For example, bow
ties and ties are together but separate from ironing pants. Why not collect all
clothing skills together in one area to make them easier to find?
Intended for audiences of all ages, this book is useable in
a variety of situations.
