PUBLISHERS WEEKLY
In this attractive if somewhat misleadingly packaged book, DIY crafter Gallego, of the popular YouTube channel Isa's World, features a selection of mermaid and sea-themed projects in a variety of mediums, with detailed step-by-step instructions and photos. One can choose between a mermaid felt doll, a sock animal mermaid cat, a cardboard "mermaid secret diary," and gumball machine shaped candy jars, among others. Some crafters will be pleased that many projects can be adapted to different themes by changing colors or embellishments but others may be disappointed that, despite the title, it's not really a book of mermaid projects; some simply have the word "mermaid" painted on them, or are generically ocean-themed. Rather than beginning with projects aimed at absolute beginners, Gallego dives right into the deep end, beginning with a complex, acrylic-painted treasure box, with a completion time of five hours and skill level of "difficult." Despite the childlike cover illustration and projects, she stresses that these are not crafts children can or should attempt on their own. However, for crafters looking for new things to make for or alongside their children, her cheery, colorfully illustrated guide offers plenty of fun.
