I just ordered one copy of that book for me and one copy for a friend as a birthday gift. We're both 64 this year: It's important to keep our child's eye. Thanks for posting the link! :-)
BTW: I learned basic develop and print with the Minolta 16-Ps when I was eight or nine… I don't remember what I was reading specifically, but I think it was the Tom Swift, Jr series. My older brother loved The Hardy Boys, but I was more into science fiction. The first books I took out from the Public Library at age seven were "Two for the Stars" and "Have Space Suit, Will Travel" by Robert Heinlein. I've not returned yet... ;-) G — If you're afraid to fall down, you'll never stand up. > On Mar 8, 2018, at 3:24 PM, Bob W-PDML <[email protected]> wrote: > > That book looks fantastic - great idea.
