I was recently home and found a classic Klutz book we read growing up called Earthsearch. It has an aluminum cover and talked about tons of worldly topics. Recycling, race, population growth, poverty. All done at an elementary school appropriate level. I thumbed through the book and read…
Explorabook and Earthsearch loom hugely in my childhood memories; I can't think of another book that has stuck with me so much. Reminiscing with my mother now (I'm 30) about times spent eating biscotti in the Barnes & Noble cafe.…

Oh goody, an expert in a question I've always wanted to ask. Once upon a time, I encountered a sort of interactive museum book called "Earthsearch". One of its "exhibits" was a color wheel, made of two spinnable pieces of tinted acetate, that purported to be able to generate any skin tone.

哦太好了，正好有个我一直想问的问题，来了个专家。从前我遇到过一本有点像互动博物馆的书，叫《Earthsearch》。它的一个“展品”是个色轮，由两片可旋转的染色醋酸片组成，号称能调出任何肤色。我猜这是三个自由度，因为对任何……
