A great Book covering Puppet making/puppet theatre
A nice book, that shows you tricks and techniques for all aspects of Puppet theatre. It contains some excellant photos and diagrams both of How to build puppets, and the history of puppetry. An excellent Book.

A wonderful book!
I am an amatuer in the field of puppetry, but a very dedicated one. This book satisfies my every need so far. Beautiful, inspirational photoes; great ideas and a stunning attention to detail. Very helpful - I avoided many beginner's mistakes simply by reading suggestions from this book. If you want to keep it simple of if you want to build elaborate marionettes and stages, most likely you'll find hints, ideas and detailed instructions that will be useful to you
