What a delight this book makes of working with clay with younger elementary aged children! It is so simple and so satisfying. Using clay as a responsive substance, Loewe describes how to build strength in the child through hard work with clay making elusively pure forms like a simple sphere. The book is richly illustrated with step-by-step photographs designed to make expert sculpture modelers and teachers of us all. Teachers and parents will find the book a fine guide in hours of work and play in modeling. It holds one grand idea after the other. It is therapeutic and quieting for all engaged in the activity. Mindfulness follows the practices explained in the book!

Hella Loewe, born in 1937 in Münster, Westphalia, Germany, is the mother of three Waldorf school graduates. From her career as a bookseller, she entered the vocation of teaching. Her training as a Waldorf teacher in Stuttgart, Germany, opened a new career for her of two decades as a classroom teacher. Between 1986 and 1995, she studied classical sculpture in Greece whenever possible, immersing herself deeply in the archetypal forms expressed there. Over her years as a teacher, Hella Loewe discovered increasing difficulties children had with concentration and social integration. She then used her studies of classical Greek forms, developing them into artistic, therapeutic modeling activities to help her students focus, and develop concentrated inner quiet.
