From School Library Journal
Gr 1-4-A mixed bag of simple crafts. The quality of the projects varies widely, suggesting that the author had to stretch to fill the tall order of 175 individual crafts, but with a keen eye and an open mind, teachers in search of new ideas may find this book to be a useful resource. All of the projects include a list of readily available materials, clearly written directions, and a color photograph of the finished product. Unfortunately, there are few diagrams or patterns provided, leaving readers to struggle with instructions such as "lightly sketch half of a doll shape." Crafts are indexed by the materials used.
