Whittlin' Whistles by Rick Wiebe

One of the signature projects whittlers enjoy working on is the whistle, and this book addresses each and every detail of successful whistle making. With a pocket knife and some readily available materials, most of which can be gathered from nature, beginning carvers will produce fun and attractive whistles that they can show off to their friends. Designed to be understandable to both younger readers and adult beginners, the book features numerous full-colour instructional photos for each project and provides a strong emphasis on safety and tool care. Featured projects include the classic slip bark whistle, tube whistles, a kazoo, a vuvuzuela, and reed whistles.

Rick Wiebe has been whittling for more than 55 years, and his work can be seen in private collections all over the world. Wiebe teaches whittling and carving to children as young as nine years old, as well as adults, in a variety of settings. Wiebe's work has appeared in Carving Magazine and Woodcarving Illustrated, among other publications. Wiebe is a British Columbian who lives in Westbank. Whittlin' Whistles, Wiebe's first book, was released in 2012.
