From handicrafts to writing, new titles inspire creativity in readers. Combining a textual and photographic history with craft projects, American Folk Art for Kids by Richard Panchyk explores the rustic traditions of artisans, sculptors and other often self-taught artists. Along with short biographies of such artists as Grandma Moses and woodcarver Elijah Pierce, Panchyk covers a broad range of categories that include pottery, quilting and the use of ""found objects"" in artwork-with numerous craft ideas relating to each topic. .
