Step 1: Buy the Book
The subjects of these (7) Grumbacher Library how-to-do-it books range from painting cityscapes to drawing the human figure, with stops at cats, crafts and the Wild West, and a preponderance of "Painting Children." The attractive, full-color books each have (30) pages and step-by-step instructions. We'll package (2) different titles together for a paltry sum, compared to the rack price.

How Does It Work?
Why does it do that? Develop an elemental understanding of magnetism, electromagnetism, electrochemistry, radio, thermodynamics, light and optics. Simon Quellen Field's 228-page paperback, Gonzo Gizmos, Projects & Devices to Channel your Inner Geek explains processes, equipment and scientific terms -- and then, for starters, tells you things like how to make a rotary steam engine in 15 minutes from a soda can, a candle and a few scraps of rubber tubing. It's the favorite of our resident geeks -- but not for kids unless they're working with an adult. That would be a mature adult. An insured, mature adult.

Go Ballistic
Nothing to it with William Gurstelle's "Backyard Ballistics," a soft-cover, 169pp compendium by an engineer on constructing rockets, cannons (carbide and spud), flingers, tennis ball mortars, balloons, fire kites, and other intriguing devices, all with common household materials. The detailed text includes parts lists, illustrated instructions, photos and quite sensible and necessary safety precautions. From Chicago Review Press.

I Will Survive…
You will survive, too, just like Gloria Gaynor, and in the woods, even. But only if you have this U.S. Army manual, cleverly titled: SURVIVAL, Department of the Army Field Manual FM21-76. It's 287 heavily illustrated pages of techniques for staying alive (add your own BeeGee jokes here) including orientation, food & cooking, fire- and shelter-making, rafts, animal, insect and plant recognition, and much more. This is the 1970 edition, but staying alive in the woods hasn't changed a whole lot since then. In soft-cover.
