Toy Story

The real one: the inside story on the workings of (50) popular toys. Written by Ed and Woody Sobey, The Way Toys Work (178pp, soft cover) explains the history and mechanics of toys from the friction car, kaleidoscope and a pioneering video game system to the super water gun, goofy putty, remote robot, and spud gun. (Pardon our trademark-free list. The real book uses the real product names!) It's interesting and well-illustrated, and the best part is that many of the toys include instructions on how to make your own version. Perfect for the tyro tinkerer. Don't want to tinker? Check the AS&S catalog or website for many of these very toys!

Stone Age Zerocks

Way back in the Stone Age, Sonny, RAM was dinner, and a copier was a guy writing on real rocks with charcoal. Then technology blossomed, and we learned to make copies by laying translucent paper over the original, and tracing it with a pencil. (Pencils are what came between goose quills and keyboards.) Turns out the technique still works, so we bought us a bunch of Trace-It pads, each with (30) 9" x 12" sheets of tracing paper. Great fun. Great potential for works of art. Great use for pencils, felt markers, chunks of charcoal.
