the importance of doing real, hands-on activities in school and at
home that enable students to: Think things through for themselves
Develop skill, originality and inventiveness Explore their own
self-interests Plan, organize and execute meaningful work Prepare
to profitably employ leisure time Be handy and resourceful Develop
both character and intellect Create useful beauty to benefit
family, community and self The Guide to Woodworking with Kids is

Since the early nineteenth century, the women of Gee's Bend in
southern Alabama have created stunning, vibrant quilts. In the only
photo-essay book about the quilts of Gee's Bend for children,
award-winning author Susan Goldman Rubin explores the history and
culture of this fascinating group of women and their unique
quilting traditions. Rubin uses meticulous research to offer an
exclusive look at an important facet of African American art and
culture. In the rural community of Gee's Bend, African American
women have been making quilts for generations. They use scraps of
old overalls, aprons, and bleached cornmeal sacks anything they can
find. Their traditions have been passed down through the decades.
Much to the women's surprise, a selection of the quilts was
featured in an exhibition at the Museum of Fine Arts, Houston, in
2002. The exhibition then traveled to the Whitney Museum in New
York City. "Eye-poppingly gorgeous," wrote a critic for the New
York Times about the exhibition. He continued, "Some of the most
miraculous works of modern art America has produced." The
Metropolitan Museum of Art will exhibit its newly acquired
collection of Gee's Bend quilts in 2017. Rubin is known for
producing well-researched, highly praised, and sophisticated
biographies of artists and other important figures. Through similar
research, The Quilts of Gee's Bend shares specifics about this rare
community and its rich traditions, allowing children to pause to
consider history through the eyes of the people who lived it and
through a legacy that is passed on to the next generation. This
book should be of great interest to classrooms, libraries, and
those interested in African American art in the United States, in
addition to quilting, life in early emancipated colonies in the
South, and Gee's Bends importance in the Civil Right's movement.
The quilts and the incredible stories behind them are powerful
motivators for anyone who wishes to accomplish anything. A map,
directions on how to make a quilt square, endnotes, and an index
round out this stunning nonfiction book.
