Dawn Isaac
A practical rainy-day idea book with broad variety: children can try creative making, games, food preparation, science experiments, magic tricks, gardening and quiet play, choosing activities that suit the moment.
Alastair Smith
This is best approached as a menu of things to make, cook, investigate and try indoors, rather than a continuous story. Its appeal lies in practical participation and variety.
Abigail Wheatley
A hands-on baking guide offering varied cake recipes, decorating techniques, adaptations and ideas for presenting cakes as gifts. Its strongest appeal is practical activity: reading leads directly into making, decorating and sharing food.
Aya Watanabe
Choose this for a child who enjoys making pictures as well as following an imaginative journey. Its central appeal is participation: ripping and gluing paper helps complete scenes rather than simply reading them.
