Spa goers helpful guide to relaxation
This book is a dream come true for those who want to know how to get that spa-feeling at home. Not everyone can go out to a spa, and even those who do, often like to repeat those delicious spa treatments in their own environment. Mary Wallace has defined many terrific ways to do that without needing lots of expensive gdgets and do-dads.

EXCITING ARTsharedbyourINUIT NEIGHBORS
The towering 'INUKSUK' (ee-nook-sook) pictured on the cover of Mary Wallace's book introduces readers to a world of earth-bound 'signposts' in the arctic - - and MUCH MORE! In their varied forms the inuksuk may be intended as markers for caches of food, to advise hunters of directions, or tosymbolize persons being memorialized. The last is an idea that could be used by students who want to follow the author's instructions for building a personal inuksuk. Another structure is shown serving as a road map to a traveler's next destination. It is not only a potential life-saver but makes a beautiful statement in the barren landscape.
Beautiful, Mesmerizing!
This gorgeously illustrated book is one of the most appealing books I have read about the Far North.It highlights the ingenuity of a people who live in a demanding environment. Not just for children
While hiking in the Canadian Rockies, we saw inuksuk along the trails.Their beauty and the fact that people had expressed themselves by creatingart out of rock, rather than defacing the area, added greatly to ourenjoyment of the outings.Read more

This book is wonderful for those who want to experience the various forms of art, but may not have the background or "know-how".Mary Wallace uses pictures to walk you through the process of homemade clay, watercolor, chalk, pencils, colors, portraits, batik, pointillism, printing and collage.Very simple instructions and easy to obtain supplies are listed.Great for giving children an introduction to art. ...

Thoughtful art activities for girls
I tried one of the art activities with my daughter's book group (3 10-year-olds) and it was a hit.The girls immediately responded to suggestions in the book on relating their art to their own lives and created beautiful art that was unique to them... not one of the three pieces was the same.
