“Zany Wooden Toys That Whiz, Spin, Pop and Fly” by Bob Gilsdorf contains several small scale carnival-style projects for parents and grandparents of active kids.
Got kids in your life? “Zany Wooden Toys That Whiz, Spin, Pop and Fly” by Bob Gilsdorf is as fun — maybe more so — for the parents or grandparents as it is for kids with its plans for some traditional and carnival type toys including shooters, launchers, handheld games, a ball-and-socket robot and gumball machines. It’s designed in comic book style, with tips for success from the cartoon character toy inventor himself. The book, published by Fox Chapel, sells for $19.95 as of 2009.
