This is a wonderful book for kids working with clay. It discusses the various types, the tools needed, etc. One of my favorite parts is when the author tells the parents that if you want to do clay with your kids, start your own project, do not work on their project. If you work on their project, then it ceases to be their project. I think that is the most important part of this book. The ideas and how to’s can be found in any other book about clay. Yes this book has some great projects. It was probably just the layout of my digital galley, but I hope they fix what appears to be awkward page layout, and lots of extra “blank” space before printing.
