Reviews

Booklist

“Each simple craft idea is laid out in one, two, or three fully illustrated pages and includes a list of materials, step-by-step directions, and a look at the finished product. Colorful drawings and decorative borders brighten the pages.”

“Ross’s directions are easy to follow, and Holm’s clear, simple illustrations are equally helpful.”
