Praise For…
"Bling is all around us," the author writes. Maybe so…but rarely is the razzle-dazzle this cranked up.Should come with a cautionary note: sunglasses a must!" -- Kirkus
"If it grabs your eye, sparkles, twinkles, or shines anywhere in the universe, you are likely to find it discussed in this book...The reader will find a great many fascinating subjects from rocks, history, science, splurges, lights, and beyond. Young readers will enjoy looking at the pictures, and more advanced readers will find fascinating tidbits to share with their friends. I recommend it for elementary and middle school libraries."
