A real " must have " for anyone as sloppy as I am, even though they may be chronologically an adult! With colour photos to nail down stains from carrots to rubber cement, including the rambunctious soy sauce and the ever prensent mayonnaise, this will help you to save that favorite shirt, skirt, or pair of jeans ya just can't throw away!
The general description of the stains are sometimes a real hoot if you don't take them seriously ( ie) "shoe polish: a substance to give smoothness or gloss to an external covering for the human foot" WHAT? I love it !
