The books in this section are usually hardcover and in decent condition, though we'll sometimes offer hard-to-find books in lesser condition at a reduced price. Though we often put images of the book with their original dust jackets, the copies here won't always (or even often) have them. If that is important to you, please call ahead or say so in the order comments!
From the dust jacket:
A well-equipped boodle box is all that is required to make a myriad of fascinating models, ranging from a Viking ship to a moon base, from a covered wagon to a rocket ship. (A boodle box? It's a place to store such things as odd bits of string, discarded spools, a dented ping-pong ball, and assorted other supposedly useless objects treasured by children.)
The instructions for making the realistic models are given in clear text and a profusion of lively, step-by- step pictures. Mr. Arnold, an elementary school principal, and Mr. Cardy, a supervisor of elementary art, have pretested their material. It is suited to the needs of the individual child or to those of the group leader working with children.
Whether making a model of an early caveman scene or a steam engine, both boys and girls will have hours of imaginative and creative fun-with next to nothing!
