Editorial Reviews
Review
...easy crafts ...easy-to-follow instructions and clearly labeled diagrams ...requiring minimum adult supervision ...leads to attractive creations. Highly recommended. -- Canadian Review Book Annual, Canadian Children's Literature 1994, by Joan Weller. Joan Weller is the head librarian at the Ottawa Public Library and the children's literature reviewer for the Ottawa Citizen.
A keeper for kids... good, budget-wise, new projects for children... If you're a Scout leader, teacher, day-care provider or busy parent looking for inexpensive but worthwhile projects for children, send for this book - immediately. -- Marjie Douglis, Star-Tribune, Minneapolis. Marjie is an award-winning handicrafter who has written and reviewed crafts articles and books.
I like this book so much I made 5 of the gifts on the first day I got it... awesome... I can't wait to make some of the great Christmas gifts. My teacher wants some of the ideas for art class too. My Nan always says the gifts she really likes the most are those I make myself. A book to enjoy and use over and over and over again. -- Mark Stacey, age 8, Book Club reviews in Growth Spurts magazine
