This review is from: Telling Fortunes: Love Magic, Dream Signs, and Other Ways to Learn the Future (Paperback)

I got this book from a book fair when I was in middle school, and I just loved it! I read it all the time, tried all the "games" and fortune telling stuff.... I had it for years, it was a favorite, but just last year it disappeared! Gone! I'm finally getting a new copy, though it'll be sad, since that original one had memories! I highly recommend this for kids, it's fun and informative; I'm 30 and would still be reading it if I had it!
