1: Well worth the $10!
This book was well worth the $10 I paid for it. It has lots of fun ideas and easy recipes. The only problem is you need a copier machine to make most of the craft ideas. It also doesn't have color photos but it is still nice.

2: Best I have found
I purchased several party planning books for my son's 4th birthday. This book was by far the best. There are great ideas, recipes, games, projects, treats, you name it, this book has it. It does not have a bunch of dressed up glossy pictures. It does have lots of photo copy pages for invites, games and decorations. The suggestions cover a wide range of ages as well.

3: Best I've ever seen
I very rarely write reviews, but this book is so great that I felt it deserved it. So many ideas that I never even thought of and step by step ways to incorporate them into the party. I took this out of the library but definitely want to buy it so I always have it on hand. This book also has a lot of fun recipes and games that don't have to wait for a birthday party.Very highly recommended

4: Not Just for Birthday Parties
From Jeane Voltz (former food editor of Woman's Day) This book has everything you'd want to know about how to throw a children's party, and has projects worked out to the tiniest detail, including how-to-drawings. This is not just for parties. The play-crafts will come in handy for Cub Scout dens, Brownie packs, rainy day entertainment and a host of occasions when the complaint is, 'What can we do now?'

5: The General Planning and Scheduling Guidelines are Excellent
From the American Library Association Booklist (Denise Donavin) Vangsgard's party plans follow common themes: cowboy, pirate, dinosaur, circus, space, etc. However, these are party plans often called for by younger children, and Vangsgard exhibits much depth of planning and creative detail. She has ideas for making your own stickers and face paint, building game structures, and fashioning cakes in original patterns. For parents not motivated to these depths of do-it-yourselfism, there are plenty of suggestions for adding a personal touch to purchased prizes, cakes and other items. The general planning and scheduling guidelines are excellent as is the advice for gearing the party to the child's age.
