My young daughter wanted to learn how to make things with polymer clay. Her older sister made these when she was her age, and now works as a baker/pastry chef, where her fondant designs and creatures have become a way to make a comfortable living. So, I am happy my youngest wants to learn how to make these, too. And this book is just what she needed — and loves! This charming and colorful guide shows how to make 30 cute animals, birds, and sea creatures with polymer clay.

There is a generous introduction which walks children through the steps and basic techniques in making these cute sculptures. The colorful page layouts, generous photos, and clever writing are fun and engaging and help so much, each step of the way. My older daughter saw it and said she wishes she’d had this when she was young. My younger daughter is having so much fun with this! If your young one wants a good introduction to this fun field, this book is an excellent place to start.
