Once your quarry is in hand, you'll apply an alteration dictated solely by chance: create a funny character, make it into a building, conceal it, add polka dots, remove a section, add stripes, scribble on top, fold, turn into an article of clothing, make it "pretty," and so on. <p/>The results: you'll be forced out of habitual ways of thinking or acting, discover new connections, and try things you might not have done on your own, creating a version of<i> The Pocket Scavenger</i> that is utterly unique, dependent on time, place, experience, and you. <p/><br></br><p><b> Review Quotes </b></p></br></br> <b>Praise for </b><i><b>The Pocket Scavenger</b> <p/></i>"Smith pushes kids (and adults) to break convention by seeing the world as inspiration, rather than simply 'things.'" --<i>GeekDad</i> <p/>"The book encourages people to push against the boundaries of 'normal' creativity and make something unique.
