The Nutshell Studies of Unexplained Death offers readers an extraordinary glimpse into the mind of a master criminal investigator. Frances Glessner Lee, a wealthy grandmother, founded the Department of Legal Medicine at Harvard in 1936 and was later appointed captain in the New Hampshire police. In the 1940s and 1950s she built dollhouse crime scenes based on real cases in order to train detectives to assess visual evidence. Still used in forensic training today, the eighteen Nutshell dioramas, on a scale of 1:12, display an astounding level of detail: pencils write, window shades move, whistles blow, and clues to the crimes are revealed to those who study the scenes carefully. Corinne May Botz's lush color photographs lure viewers into every crevice of Frances Lee's models and breathe life into these deadly miniatures, which present the dark side of domestic life, unveiling tales of prostitution, alcoholism, and adultery. The accompanying line drawings, specially prepared for this volume, highlight the noteworthy forensic evidence in each case. Botz's introductory essay, which draws on archival research and interviews with Lee's family and police colleagues, presents a captivating portrait of Lee.

Craft hours of imaginative play with dolls, action figures, and Matchbox cars... Boxes. We all have them. From decorative fancy boxes with magnetic closures to the corrugated pile in the garage pining to be included in some creative fun. Craft designer Christen Byrd certainly had a stash and--always inspired by her three imagination-rich kiddos--she found her collection of boxes calling her name. The first space she created for her children--Lucy, Olive, and Max--was the chic little Family Room/Kitchen Combo which was quickly followed by a playful Super Hero Hideout. And, yes, all three play with both because there's no toy discrimination happenin' in the Byrd house and boxes create that "come-one, come-all" kind of fun. To keep up with each kiddo's rich imagination and growing collection of figurines, more creative spaces and scenery took shape-- including a Bedroom, Farm, Fairy Garden, Mechanic's Garage, Ice Cream Shop, Car Wash, and Ballerina Studio---and Small Box Craft was born. To keep things stress-free, Small Box Craft has simple, clear instructions, helpful diagrams and photos, and requires only your trusty glue gun and some easy-to-find materials from your local craft store. (...and your recycling bin). A happy little book packed with big-time fun, Small Box Craft is a blueprint for hours of creative play for that kiddo in your life.
