About this title

Synopsis

What a delight this book makes of working with clay with younger elementary aged children! It is so simple and so satisfying. Using clay as a responsive substance, Loewe describes how to build strength in the child through hard work with clay making elusively pure forms like a simple sphere. The book is richly illustrated with step-by-step photographs designed to make expert sculpture modelers and teachers of us all. Teachers and parents will find the book a fine guide in hours of work and play in modeling. It holds one grand idea after the other. It is therapeutic and quieting for all engaged in the activity. Mindfulness follows the practices explained in the book!
