Book Reviews of Happy Gloves: Charming Softy Friends Made from Colorful Gloves
Book Review: Happy Gloves
Summary: 5 Stars
Miyako Kanamori is an artist with socks and gloves. Her books are also works of how-to book art, perfectly crafted. Happy Gloves is a little more complex than her first, Sock and Glove, but well worth the extra effort.
The books have a picture book story format, the characters are the dolls you can make.
Slight text, sweet expressions in clear photographs, and plenty of diagrams, either with dotted lines and cutout instructions, or sequential photographs to help the inexperienced maker. I particularly liked how the idea of the book is to create a doll between a parent and child, as an activity. How wonderful for a child to see a doll materialize out of a humble pair of gloves. And maybe a friend or two. Kanamori supplies examples of kinds of faces to simply embroider, so the look is right.
