Summary: "The Playwork Book" by Ann Macbeth is a instructional guide written in the early 20th century. This book focuses on creative play, detailing various projects that children can undertake using simple materials to foster their imaginative capabilities.

She advocates for fostering independence in children, encouraging them to develop their abilities through hands-on projects.
