String broke right away
The book is good however the string broke the very first time my daughter played with it. Super disappointed.

5 stars because these ratings are meaningless.
Got it for a gift and the person said they liked it.

Focus on age appropriateness
Book is actually fairly good. Photos/ diagrams are clear, but figures can be quite complicated. Be cognizant of the age and patience level of intended user.

Cool but complex
The book has a lot of neat string tricks but was too complex for my elementary aged child.

Keep the kids and adults busy.
I think most adults learned simple string figures as children and could do 1 or 2 moves. This book not only has the basics but over 24 string configurations and the history behind them. This is perfect for a rainy day with children of all ages. Also great for long travel times by car or air. Not a lot to pack, all you need is the book and a nice piece of string. the photos and directions are concise and easy to follow. I received a copy of this ARC in exchange for a fair and honest review.
