5.0 out of 5 stars It's a really great book for junior amusement park junkies., August 26, 1999
By A Customer
This review is from: Amusement Parks: Roller Coasters, Ferris Wheels, and Cotton Candy (First Books--Performances & Entertainment) (Library Binding)
I highly recommend this book because it's filled with fun and intresting facts for growing minds. It covers everything from Coney Island to the present. In my opinion it's 64 pages of fun and learning. But don't take my word for it,read it yourself.

3.0 out of 5 stars Misleading title, November 14, 2000
By A Customer
This review is from: Amusement Parks: Roller Coasters, Ferris Wheels, and Cotton Candy (First Books--Performances & Entertainment) (Library Binding)
This book has a lot of good information about the history of amusement parks. Unfortunately, I found absolutely no mention of cotton candy anywhere except in the book's title. No crime, I suppose, but it's a little disappointing--I needed to find some history and process of making cotton candy.

This is a "Franklin Watts First Book." Great for kids, but if you're looking for significant information (or a read of more than a few minutes), look elsewhere.
