School Library Journal Review
Gr 2-5-These short volumes pack in 12 crafts projects each, resulting in terse instructions ("When the muslin has dried, paint the outside of the cauldron black, then spray it silver") and space for only small photos. Although readers are advised to look for supplies around the house, some projects cannot be completed without specialty materials such as craft foam, writing icing, or tile cement. Projects range from simple to relatively complex. Children are photographed displaying the completed projects, which look like kids could actually create them. (c) Copyright 2010.
