Writers Elaine Batiste and Natalie Crowley invite readers to discover how to tie knots, grow and dry herbs, mend a sock, make natural dyes, and more! Featuring art by Chris Duriez, each chapter includes clear, illustrated step-by-step instructions as well as information about the history of that skill. For example, did you know that lemonade is credited with helping fight the plague in Paris? Or that paper airplanes became popular during World War II because traditional toys weren’t available? With so many activities to explore, this book is a perfect gift book that kids will turn to again and again.
