Review

Tattoo You! brilliantly combines fascinating history and fun. The book
begins with the story of tattooing—who has done it, why, and how—and
provides many intriguing and charming examples of this eons-old art. The
30 temporary tattoos featured are well designed, particularly the ship
and the mermaid; they also seem to last forever. The book comes in a kit
that also includes four body crayons to color the tattoos, if desired.
Highly recommended.
