title: 175 Easy-to-Do Valentine Crafts
author: Highlights for Children
description: Gr 1-4-A mixed bag of simple crafts. The quality of the projects varies widely, suggesting that the author had to stretch to fill the tall order of 175 individual crafts, but with a keen eye and an open mind, teachers in search of new ideas may find this book to be a useful resource. All of the projects include a list of readily available materials, clearly written directions, and a color photograph of the finished product. Unfortunately, there are few diagrams or patterns provided, leaving readers to struggle with instructions such as "lightly sketch half of a doll shape." Crafts are indexed by the materials used.

  TO JOHN BLAND
  
  
  
  
  
  My Lamb, you are so very small,
  
  
  You have not learned to read at all.
  
  
  Yet never a printed book withstands
  
  
  The urgence of your dimpled hands.
  
  
  So, though this book is for you
