currently doing some initial research for a collection development project for my Children's Materials class. we have to put together a proposed collection of nonfiction books for children that are still in print, all related to a specific theme of our choice. I was thinking it might be interesting to have a collection focused on heritage crafts or fiber arts. I'm planning on including a mix of book types--biographies of fiber artists, craft project books, informational books about how a specific craft is done and what it is.

wanted to throw this question out to the wider mastodon community--do you have any favorite kids books about fiber arts or other heritage crafts like basketry, blacksmithing, or woodworking? even if they're fiction I'd love to hear about them!
