Mr. Twister,

I've had teachers tell me they used twisted figures as awards for perfect 
scores in spelling and like that.  A simple balloon figure can be a powerful 
incentive.

The following is the promo on a book I'm advertising in the next mailing.  
It's not balloons but it might be useful for a teacher.

Good Luck,
Tom Myers
