School Library Journal

Gr 3-5

This title contains step-by-step directions for an array of room accessories that includes everything from earring dolls and doorknob covers to small tables and trash baskets. Materials are readily obtained and directions are clear and easy to follow. As with any craft book, a photo of the finished product would be more appealing than a simple illustration. Purchase this title for fans of Ross's books or collections with a heavy need for crafting materials.-G. Alyssa Parkinson, Highland Township Library, MI
