Review: Hands on physics - What better way to teach and learn about physics! This book does both. Extremely well illustrated with diagrams throughout - essential aids to learning concepts. I've chosen this book from all my many purchases as the one I will buy again and gift to my sister for Christmas. We are both Grandmothers, keen to help the up-and-coming younger members of our families who may be the innovative creators of tomorrow.
Review: Karakuri works - I found this book quite a delight. It is saturated with enthusiasm for the techniques of cardboard engineering, especially with relation to creative education, and the 4 models included in the book show the application of the methods explained in the book in a graphic and funny way.

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ but what there is so far looks great and kept him occupied
*by C***T on 6 October 2015*

Has kept my 11 year old busy over the summer! The time and care he has taken to make sure the models are built correctly means we don't actually have one to use yet, but what there is so far looks great and kept him occupied.
