Synopsis

As easy as it is fun! There's nothing like a balloon animal to brighten the face of a child--or any adult big enough to admit it. Now, you can make these festive animals yourself! Expert balloonologist Aaron Hsu-Flanders will have you creating your own furless friends in minutes with his easy-to-follow instructions. The enclosed pump (available nowhere else) makes the high-quality, specialty balloons a cinch to inflate. And more than 250 pictures--one for each step--make it simple for even an all-thumbs adult to make an entire zoo!
