Girls: Let's Sew by DK Publishing
/
Let's Sew is a beginner sewing book aimed at young girls. The projects are all very simple, appearing to be around the same level of difficulty. DK has done a great job designing this book. There are ample examples and diagrams showing how to do each step of the process, and the pictures are very eye-catching and colorful. I think this is great text FOR GIRLS to learn how to sew. And this is my beef. Everyone should learn how to sew, especially the basic stitches. Knowledge of sewing can engender creativity, save money, and overall be generally helpful. There's no reason why this book couldn't have included projects that would appeal to both boys and girls. Since we're encouraging girls to pursue STEM projects, we should also be encouraging boys to pursue creative pursuits as well.
