American Travel Writers, 1850-1915, Vol. 189 Book

This book offers tips on how to make puppets and puppet stages, how to supervise children making their own puppets, and how to use puppets to bring books to life for children of all ages. Scripts for short puppet shows and pen-and-ink illustrations for the how-to steps make this a useful tool for anyone interested in kid-centric puppeteering. Some of the recommended picture book titles that Bauer includes are a little dated now, but the puppet basics will never go out of date.
