Buttons and Beads

From Trash to Treasures

Daniel Nunn

Do you have old buttons and beads that you are about to throw away? Instead of throwing them away, why not recycle them into something beautiful. This instructional book will tell you all about buttons and beads and how to turn them into decorations, jewelry, and fun games. The book begins with a small section describing exactly what buttons and beads are and what happens if we throw them away. The next five chapters give ideas and instructions on how to turn those objects into something decorative or fun. The words in bold scattered throughout the book are in a glossary at the back to help expand the readers vocabulary. There is also a page with additional websites that can be checked out for further information. Every page has a colorful photograph to illustrate the text. Young readers will be inspired to try out the different projects and recycle trash into treasures.

I received this book free of charge from Children's Lit in exchange for my honest review.
