Balloon Magic

"Balloon Magic" is a book series by author, Marvin L. Hardy. Be aware that the books within the series are for different size balloons. Ask the sellers which book they have before you buy it! More information about the books can be found at http://www.balloonmagic.com/ My review covers the basic 260Q book with spiral binding.Great photographs and precise instructions will have you creating a variety of kid favorites: basic dogs, daschunds, giraffes, swans, swords, teddy bears, etc. My only wish is that this book covered hats, too.The spiral binding was a wonderful aid that other books don't have. Search for a book that has spiral binding or you'll find yourself trying to keep the book open to the correct page while using both of your hands to create the wonderful balloon shapes!

I do not work with balloons very often, but found this book to be very useful for a beginner. It has good photos of what you are trying to do, and step by step instructions. I did find some of the instructions hard to follow at first, but after working with the balloons, I finally got it. My boys love it when I pull the book out to review. I find that this is a good book for someone who does not know where to start.

Within an hour I was making cool swords (I call them light sabers) swans and dogs for my kids. I am now more accomplished and the most popular father on the block at parties. I highly reccommended this book for both beginners and those more skilled. I was so happy with this book I am presently waiting for an order of 321Q balloons to try my skills in Marvins other book. Similar balloon twisting books do not compare in the way the directions are presented in such a colorful easy to follow manner.
