Puppets are fun to play with and they're even more fun to make. In this book, readers learn how to create their very own puppets out of materials that are easily accessible, such as socks, spoons, and cups. Brilliant color photographs detail each step in the process, as readers learn how to turn basic materials into lion, bear, and fish puppets, and even a mermaid marionette. Straightforward text and step-by-step instructions help readers gain an understanding of the craft and how it's made. The book begins with a helpful hint and list of materials to guide readers as they begin to create puppets that are ready to come to life!

      Gr 1-4-These titles feature a clean design and nine attractive projects each, but the younger crafters at whom these books are aimed will need to work with an adult in order to execute the instructions. Although there are photographs depicting each step of the projects, there are no pictures demonstrating how to do some of the trickier tasks, such as affixing felt fins to a sock puppet or using a pen cap to make circles of clay. Nor are there templates for cutting out a skull shape or a flower petal. There are some cute ideas for decorating paper bags or plastic jugs to look like houses, but without process photos, the offerings come off as sterile and unconvincing. VERDICT Skip these titles: there are plenty of other sock puppet fish in the sea.
