Lots of Information

I like this book.. Very good help for starters like me who wanted to use arts as a summer activity with kids

[Shellina Nefelibata · Rating 2 out of 5]

First ten pages are beginner instructions, then straight into advanced techniques. NOT a 101 book.

Good beginner book

Has clear written instructions, good for some one needing basics and project ideas. With that in mind perhaps could use more pictures.
