Crafts that convert a story into a hands-on experience are a wonderful way to involve young readers and listeners. Making a Pinocchio whose nose actually grows, staging a race between the tortoise and the hare, or sending Peter Pan flying through the air will definitely enhance the fun of story hour! These easy-to-make crafts focus on twenty different children's stories, although many can be adapted to other tales as well.

      Gr 1-4-Children will like these 20 imaginative projects, but anyone younger than nine will probably need help to assemble some of them. Each one is covered in a two-page spread, with a materials list followed by a numbered list of steps. The directions are clear and well illustrated with cartoon like watercolor art. Safety warnings about using sharp implements are not included. The "Bear Hug Puppet" for Marjorie Flack's Ask Mr. Bear uses party blowers for arms; Paul Bunyan's griddle is greased with the aid of a magnet-controlled Sourdough Sam; Doro- thy's house spins to Oz on a twisted string. As a supplement to storytelling or for hands-on crafts activities, this book is a good companion to Ross's Crafts from Your Favorite Fairy Tales (Millbrook, 1997), which uses the same format but different stories.-Lynda Ritterman, Atco Elementary School, Waterford, NJ
