Flashlight Dinosaurs, Terror in Time (Flashlight Books)
When the time machine lands, the leader of a band of magazine photographers jumps out and shouts: “I smell dinosaurs out here!” Soon, they’re all taking pictures of the three-horned triceratops, the gigantic allosaur, and many more monsters. With just a simple flashlight, kids can project shadows of these monsters on a wall. Flashlight Books are funny and a little scary, but their most unusual features are the illustrations, with die-cut shapes that glow in the dark. Better yet, when kids turn out the lights, then hold one of the book’s die-cut paper monsters so that it catches a flashlight beam, a monster silhouette is projected on the wall behind the picture. Kids can make their own shadow monster movies after they’ve read each book’s humorously rhymed story..

Flashlight Fighting: How to Make Your Pocket Flashlight a Take-Anywhere Self-Defense Weapon
A simple 6-inch flashlight is an extremely potent self-defense weapon if wielded properly and is among the few useful items one may carry that has yet to be legislated into liability Guns are strictly controlled in some areas; knives are subject to as many if not more laws, some of them so vague that they defy interpretation. Collapsible batons, billy clubs, mace and pepper sprays are often illegal, but few, if any, regulations concern the possession of the common pocket torch. About now you’re probably thinking that you’re in deep trouble if the only weapon you’ve got is a battery-powered flashlight, but anyone who knows how to use a palm stick knows just how effective even a short length of rigid material can be. Thrust into the body’s soft targets, joints and other vital areas, it can debilitate and even kill an attacker..
