Review: 7 yr old loved it - I did not expect the kind of happiness it gave to my 7 yr old niece, she got super excited to use the book to learn different techniques. I hope the book really helps her the way she thinks it is going to. Review: Una gran inversión - Es un libro muy bueno, me gustaría haberlo encontrado en español, pero aun en inglés es muy fácil de manejar una actividad nueva por semana si lo quieres manejar así, ideas fáciles de ejecutar, los materiales no son tan difíciles de conseguir si en verdad estas interesado en involucrar a tus hijos con el arte
