review 1: This one is really cute. I'm reading it to my story time crowd tomorrow too, even though the craft idea uses parts too small for their ages. I'll just have them use paper or crayons to draw faces on their paper plates. So even though the book is short enough to read to younger kids, older kids (4-7) would probably like it too for the craftiness. I can see this book being perfect for a rainy day indoor activity fest.
review 2: LET'S MAKE FACES would be a cute book to share with children. The author takes all sorts of items and uses them to make faces. Sometimes the faces are obvious, and sometimes they are obscured in a field of objects.The obscured faces let children practice scanning. The face examples can help get their creative juices flowing, so that... more you can provide 'the objects' and the child and you can make art.One other thing you could do with this book is to use it with very young children to name things. There are all sorts of fruits, vegetables, and plant materials shown in this book, as well as such diverse objects as chairs, shoes, sinks and bolts. At the end of the book there are some ideas on how make your own faces. But honestly it causes me some concern that someone is suggesting a hot glue gun, wire, and pliers for children to use. Although I suppose it would fine if an adult was assisting. less
