![]() Into Thin Air: A Personal Account of the Mt. Everest Disaster $15.00 a book i enjoyed and savoured. wonderfully descriptive and many sharp observations of human behaviour. i normally do not keep books after i've read them. this one i had to pass on to a good friend. so far i have read 3 of krakauer's books. i shall read his fourth as i do like his take of the world. wish him many more years as a writer. ![]() Thames & Kosmos Little Labs - Stepping into Science $34.95 I recently purchased Stepping into Science for my son who is 5 and just starting kindgergarten homeschool. He just loves to do experiments and anything hands on and after reading the description for this product I thought it would be a good fit for him. He does really enjoy it and it is definitely an introduction to science projects for his age level. There are a lot of small pieces and cardboard and styrofoam so if you have children younger than 4 or 5 you would want to keep this away from them. We work on the experiments when my son's 2 year old sister is napping so she can't get into the kit. There are a lot of experiments and they can be done more than once which is a plus. And there are also explanations for going further on the experiments like making a large sundial from the small one. Overall I would reccomend this to anyone with a preschooler or kindergarten age child who would like to have some fun with science. ![]() Flashpoint 4 Channel, Radio Remote Control Receiver. 110V A/C, Plugs into the A/C Cord of the Monolight $24.95 This receiver is run by the 110 Volt AC current powering the monolight.
