Engaging in crafts creates more than a quilt, a painting, or a ceramic bowl—it creates peace of mind, say authors Davidson and Tahsin. Narrator Joan Walker delivers this message about the therapeutic qualities of crafting with enthusiasm that mirrors this celebration of traditional crafts. Walker’s lilting narration occasionally blurs narrative transitions such as moving to quotations and research studies, but her animated voice clearly delivers the instructions for each project and brings home the benefits of engaging the hands in a craft. These include reducing stress and developing discipline and a sense of control that allows us to be more self-reliant and confident. This ardent appeal to discover authenticity and fulfillment by practicing a craft will encourage creatives and noncreatives alike. M.F. © AudioFile 2019, Portland, Maine
