OK, I never got great grades on book reviews, but here goes: 

Just the other night, at the NSESOBJ (North Seattle Every-so-often 
Balloon Jam), I held a copy of this book in my hot little hands. Overall, 
it's a great book and I've ordered my own copy from Amazon (~$21 US with 
shipping) already.

The book is very nicely done; good paper, fine printing, beautiful full-
color photos on every page, good instructions, artful and engaging 
layout, unique ideas for balloon hats. 

Let me talk about the creativity part for a minute: I've been twisting 
for a long time and haven't seen some of these designs. Either I don't 
get out enough, or these guys are very creative. I'm guessing both are 
probably true. See my review on Amazon for more gushing. 

I think this is a great book. Like most books of this kind (includes 
balloons and a pump) I think the quality of the pump is suspect. But I'm 
reviewing the book, not the attachments. 

What are you still reading this for? Go over to amazon.com and order one 
of your own!
