Customer Reviews

Best book of Hand Shadows
I bought several books on this subject. This one blows the others away. You will not need another book on this subject. The Lincoln and Nixon head figures are amazing. The author knows his stuff.

A wonderful do-it-yourself book for kids
I went up on Amazon to try and find some books that my children could do independently. This was one that I chose, and I am so glad that I did. The kids were fascinated with all the neat hand shadows they could make out of their hands, and how relatively simple they were to copy and make! They already had a fascination with hand shadows and flashlights and now they are even more fascinated. The book has page after page of neat, detailed shadows that are somehow still very simple to make. What really struck me about this book is that it will be excellent for years to come, it was interesting enough for me to look through it and try the shadows in addition to my very young children. I can't recommend a book higher than this one!

The Art of Hand Shodows
A great book. It should come with a little flashlight, just for fun. I had a lot of of fun with this one. My six year old thought it was a really fun activity...and she still plays with shadows...even weeks later. A great buy for all the fun the kids will have:)
