Reviews
The Horn Book Guide
“Ross shows readers how to make accessories for kitchen use in a few easy steps. There’s cutting and gluing—but no sewing—involved in turning an old shirt into an apron, for example. Some items seem less useful (e.g., ribbon-decorated rubber gloves, paper napkins with fabric pieces glued to them). Unfussy illustrations perk up the pages.” —The Horn Book Guide
