Toys for Boys!!
Whilst this is a great book for boys toys (trains, planes, cars, boats) I could only find one or two that would appeal to a young girl - the best one being an animal train "greatest show on earth" pull along toy. Also, everything is in inches and for overseas buyers, metric dimensions would be handy. Still a great little woodworking book though.
My Favorite Toy Book
Of the several wood toy building books I own this one is by far the best. It has very practical easy to follow instructions based on 3/4 lumber making the projects easy to build the only thing I recall as not being 3/4 inch were the narrow wheels.
I've built several of the projects in this book. Iam especially fond of the cars and trucks.
Something for everyone
As a semi-pro woodworker with a shop full of tools I found his step-by-step directions clear and his plans complete. Whether you have a Shopsmith or a Unisaw, you'll find something in this book for your kids or grandkids. I personally recommend the Pull-Along Train for the novice, and the biplane or P-40 for more experienced and better equiped weoodworkers. My only suggestion is this: Get better wheels. If you can't figure out how to mmake them, buy them.
