Review
“Jumbo” is a great word to describe this thick set of craft projects
that children and adults will love to do together. Detailed instructions
are provided for more than 150 projects, which are grouped into five
categories: things for your room, things to wear, gifts to make, special
days, and oldtime crafts. Most of the projects could be completed by
children with a minimum of parental supervision. Supporting the projects
are lucid and helpful black-and-white illustrations. The author makes
all of the ideas very accessible. Recommended.
