Reviews

"Each project...is well-suited to young children... The selected artworks are nicely varied... Each step is photographed from above and depicts a child working on the project, giving little ones plenty of encouraging guidance, while charming spot illustrations emphasize the general sense of playfulness. A strong choice for art collections.-- ""Booklist"" (10/15/2023 12:00:00 AM)"
