The Name's Familiar: Mr. Leotard, Barbie, and Chef Boy-Ar-Dee
Editorial Reviews
Observer and Eccentric Newspapers, October 17, 1999
"The Name's Familiar is a concise read, sometimes witty and often inspiring. The men and women who created the goods and services we take for granted today didn't wave a magic wand. Their success was built on hard work and the ability to bounce back after numerous failures. Besides being a handy etymological resource, Laura Lee's book is a tribute to their perseverance and accomplishments."
Midwest Book Review
After reading this book, if you had to perform a Heimlich maneuver because of a Rubik's Cube, you might not be prepared to save a life, but you could thoroughly educate the victim.
