Crafty Kids series.
Masks helps crafters create masks from different cultural traditions; Puppets focuses on finger, sock, and mitten puppets; and T-Shirts offers template and stencil patterns for painting designs on T-shirts. While some instructions are vague and some projects are repetitive, the books offer plenty of ideas and basic techniques and are illustrated with sharp color photos. Bib., glos., ind.
