This is a wonderful picture book that celebrates community and creativity from acclaimed cut-paper artist Nikki McClure ( )

Homemade projects abound - from simple songs and paintings to complex cabinets and layer cakes and a majestic boat. This book features all things made by hand with a spirit of buzzing creativity and craftsmanship. The various creations are listed in groups of four and illustrated in turn. The numerous handmade projects were fun to mull over, and the variety ensured I found at least a few homemade projects that I'd like to try. Lovely cut-paper illustrations. ( )
