Howdy!

Here are some comments about the book

Comedy magic with balloons
by Norm Barnhart.

The cover says "A collection of tricks and routines for magical  
entertainers & balloon artists". I can't agree with that. It's a nice book  
for magicans who want's to do some magic with balloons, but not for  
balloon entertainers who want's to do some magic tricks. There are 10  
tricks / routines in this book. To perform 8 of them you need magic props  
that you only can get from magic dealers. Norm Barnhart doesn't give you  
instructions to build your own props. If you don't have them, forget the  
trick. Sorry, but I was disapointed from this book.
