Making (Almost) Instant Puppets cover

This wonderful book is packed with a range of quick, inexpensive ways to make the main types of puppet using objects that are spare, scrap, recycled or easily accessible. With imagination and creative flair, it explains the principles and techniques that can transform a plastic bottle into a hippopotamus hand puppet or a few cardboard rolls into a dancing marionette. Alongside the practical information, it also gives staging advice so that your puppets can perform as living and believable characters. This is truly a book that will bring the magical world of puppet theatre within reach of everyone, whatever their time or resource limits.

Fully Illustrated with well over 400 clear photos within the 160 soft-bound pages - an enormous amount of work. Making (Almost) Instant Puppets is certainly an inspirational Book. -- Ray Dasilva, British Puppet & Model Theatre Guild Newsletter * British Puppet & Model Theatre Guild Newsletter *
