Artisans Around the World
Published by Thriftbooks.com User , 21 years ago
All six books in this series are gorgeous. They connect the geography, history, and culture of a region in a way that will interest kids and adults alike. Beautiful photos, drawings, and stunning maps. The introductory information to each project is interesting and helps kids understand why people might do certain types of art. The step-by-step project instructions are easy to follow, with drawings to accompany each step. Some projects are challenging; others easy to do with a large group, but they all are student-tested (with photos of their final products!). Best of all, they are authentic folk art projects-not the "let's make a toilet paper drum" variety. These projects work great for scout troop activities and home school projects as well as for public school teachers who want to connect art with history and geography. These books could be used with upper elementary through middle school students. Highly recommended for classroom use and as gifts for grandchildren!
