We all remember the beanie baby craze of the mid to late 1990's. I was caught up in it trying to buy them for my sister. Now they have died out but are still available here and there. This is a collectors handbook. It has color pictures and articles of the beanie babies, as well as a price guide. This is the 1998 edition. I bought it to help me track down these elusive creatures during the craze. It's still a nice piece of nostalgia.
