K-Gr 3-Ross presents 20 seasonal projects made from easily obtainable craft materials and household items. Each activity is presented on a spread featuring step-by-step illustrated boxes and a drawing of the completed item. Instructions are clearly written and correspond with each illustration. The watercolor art is serviceable but not outstanding. The range of crafts includes decorations for Christmas, Hanukkah, Kwanzaa, winter, Lincoln's Birthday, and Valentine's Day. An acceptable addition to libraries with crafting needs.-G. Alyssa Parkinson, Highland Township Library, MI Copyright 2006 Reed Business Information.Book Details
