Seasoned woodcarver Peter Benson guides readers through the basics of whittling, explaining what equipment is needed, giving essential advice on best practice and showing how to carve safely. The projects have clearly presented, easy-to-follow instructions that increase in difficulty. Readers can hone their whittling skills as they make their way through the book.

Projects include a dolphin, polar bear, kingfisher and more.
