THE HIPPIE HANDBOOK ~ BY CHELSEA CAIN

What's a roach clip and how in hell can someone mistake it for a hair ornament? Thanks to this book, you won't have to suffer the same mistake.

With a Psychedelic and simple yet lovely illustrations by Lia Miternique, this is delightfully trippy. The former commune child's humorous short narratives about her life with the "back-to-the-lander" parents will keep you from mocking bizarre hippie behavior like anthropomorphizing inanimate objects (a coffee jealous of a tea cup?) or organizig "dig a hole" parties for the outhouse where dudes "fill in" the "old hole and dig another"

From your average "How To's (starting a commune, composting, when to flash a peace sign) to the downright useful (what to do when teargassed, panhandling, "oregano brownies recipe) to amusing information (hippie speak, hippie names, jobs for hippies), you'll find yourself being down with this one. Its funny, insightful, and tremendously helpful, Cain has made "The Hippie Handbook" invaluable for the "dude" or even for "the square"
