Book Reviews of The Little Book of Whittling: Passing Time on the Trail, on the Porch, and Under the Stars

Book Review: Brian's Carving or Whittling.
Summary: 4 Stars

Brian lives in Germany near Frankfort and would like to whittle. I think this book will teach him the best way. He speaks very good English as he does speak German. The book is easy to read, so he might take to school as a project for all his classmates to learn also.
