Praise for Let's Party:

"An illustrated guide to planning delicious, craft-filled parties…. Many recipes are made more accessible by using readily available, pre-made ingredients. Some recipes can be prepped and then finished by party guests. Most activities and recipes are simple, with just a few items and instructions, although a handful have longer lists of materials and more intricate steps. The whimsical illustrations and color photographs appear visually enticing and refreshingly realistic rather than Pinterest-perfect…. Iwai provides further guidance in the form of tips, techniques, common tools and equipment, and workarounds to save time or help avoid the need to buy specialized items. A friendly guide to inspire kids and help adults craft memorable parties."

“This delightful DIY guide [is] a perfect blend of thoughtfulness and whimsy. . . Top-notch back matter offers basic cake and frosting recipes to incorporate with any party, reproducible party planning guides, and craft templates that correspond to the themes.” —Booklist

Her love of crafting, cooking, and baking came full circle when her son was born, and every birthday party became a DIY project with a theme of his choice.
