Cool Tricks!: A Grown-Up's Guide to All the Neat Things You Never Learned to Do As a Kid!

More than jumping rope and playing jacks, this book covers shadow animals, paper tricks, paper airplanes, a recipe for homemade soap bubble mix, tricks with yo-yos, tops, simple juggling, balloon tricks and animals, the string game Cat's Cradle, plus how to whistle with two fingers. No, it's not Tolstoy, but I'd recommend it as an entertaining read for anyone facing a B'day past 30 who is in need of a little fun.
