Well, this book opens the door to a great project or two to do with my granddaughters -- good, clean fun. Just looking at the cover picture I can almost smell the strawberry and peach fragrances that are implied.When I was a child crafts occupied most of my spare time, but traditional crafts like soap making seem to be a lost art now. Kudos to the author for an in depth, yet simple description of this old-fashion, hands-on, make-something craft. If you can pry your kids away from their electronic devices, I'm sure they would enjoy this delightful activity.My neighbor made pumpkin soap for her friends and family last Thanksgiving -- almost good enough to eat. We were all treasuring our little cellophane-wrapped gifts. I think there is a world of enjoyment ahead for anyone who should want to experiment with the process of soap making and this book shows you how. I should probably have written this after I have gotten my hands soapy, but I know it will be fun.
