Reviews
It's nice to have a little built-in flexibility for a club or classroom activity. The four projects in each of these books are presented in levels--if you've completed one level and still have time, you can try the next, or if a step took longer than expected, you can pause your project without having to backtrack to square one. Clean design with neatly laid out instructions helps ensure success, and readily available materials reduce planning time. . . .Great for club or classroom use.-- School Library Journal, Series Made Simple These projects only require commonly found household items, such as pipe cleaners, drinking straws, and marshmallows, and a few basic tools, such as a screwdriver, an awl, and a hot-glue gun. They comprise step-by-step directions and accompanying color photographs set against a white, grid background. . . . A sleek layout, clear directions, and engaging possibilities make this title a solid resource for STEM collections and makerspaces.-- Booklist
