BOOK REVIEW: The Little Coin Purse
Title: The Little Coin Purse
by Carol Devlin ISBN: 0974188700 32 pages, but they're a quarter the normal size of a piece of pape I seriously thought I got an empty box from Amazon, then discovered that this book is so tiny it can barely be called a pamphlet.The material appears decent, but for about the same money I could get one of Margie Deeb's books, which could keep me occupied for months, and be used as a reference for years. This book could have been written in an afternoon, while typing with one finger. (although I realize figuring out techniques takes a while - but there are usually some "eureka!" moments which make it go much more quickly). I'd skip this one, because it really wants to fit in a Little Coin Purse, not just help you make one. Your Intrepid Reporter, Kathy N-V P.S.: For those familiar with my stories, you could read two of them, and get about as much content as is in this book. |

Good to see you back on board, Kathy. Shame about the book although it did
stimulate your considerable wit! Marisa AU/NZ |
