 | Personal Soda Vending Machine - 10-can (DR-3) |
 | ""Cool" Conversation Piece" | 2006-10-17 |
Purchased a Drink-O-Matic for my son at Sharper Image. Simple to set up. Worked perfectly right out of the box. Drink-O-Matic looks "cool", and cools sodas fairly well, but drinks are not as cold as a real refrigerator. Also, it makes a continuous fan sound. Not loud, just continuous. If cooling drinks is your top priority, buy a small fridge instead. But if you want a "cool" conversation piece, I recommend the Drink-O-Matic. My son loves it in his room.
I recently saw a "Koolatron" at Home Depot: it also looks cool. I wish I would have checked it out earlier. It was about $50 cheaper.

 | Papagayo: The Mischief Maker by Gerald McDermott, ISBN 0152594655 |
 | "Our Favorite McDermott Tale" | 2000-05-07 |
McDermott's Papagayo is our favorite of his spectacular books for the 4-8 year olds (we have them all). His illustrations are brilliant, even suitable for framing. Caution may be in order, however, for younger children or those "afraid of the dark" or "monsters". This mythological tale is a bit spooky--we love it!

 | Zomo the Rabbit: A Trickster Tale from West Africa |
| "McDermott Masterful Again" | 2000-04-26 |
With Zomo the Rabbit : A Trickster Tale from Africa, Gerald McDermott demonstrates again why he is our favorite when it comes to children's books. The tale is clever. The illustrations are spectacular, as always. McDermott's books are the favorites of my 7-year old, who reads them over and over again. My 2-year old also loves them.
