Review from Goodreads: This book covers the types of wood and tools for carving (and reassures beginners that they, too, can carve using just a good pocketknife.) Introduces readers to several categories of carving. There are chapters on wall plaques, trays, bookends, jewelry, and animal and human figures. Along with the detailed instructions are great black and white illustrations including completed projects with patterns for over 30 different examples. Tips for using sandpaper, paint, and wax to finish and protect your artwork. This is a great book for anybody -- kids or adults -- interested in this fascinating form of folk art. Written in
