About the author

Klutz is a publishing company started in Palo Alto, California in 1977 and acquired by Scholastic Inc. in 2002. The first Klutz book was a how-to guide titled Juggling for the Complete Klutz, which came provided with juggling beanbags attached in a mesh bag. The book was created by three friends who graduated from Stanford University: Darrell Lorentzen, John Cassidy, and B.C. Rimbeaux. Since then the company has continued to specialize in activity-driven books sold along with other items needed for the activity. Not all the books are about developing a skill; there has also been a geography book containing, among other physical attachments, packets of rice corresponding to the average daily caloric intake among the poorest people of the world. Many of their books are spiral bound and teach various crafts. The items needed are usually included with the book, e.g. the juggling guide. The Klutz credo is: Create wonderful things, be good, have fun.

[Maria Kamaris · Rating 5 out of 5]

I love Klutz books. I'm actually not a teen, but the mother of one, and I think they're great for anyone who's looking to try out a new craft. The books always come with everything you need to create, so you're ready to start right off the bat and don't need to read the book, then go purchase necessary items. They either explain terminology or use simple directions, which even as an adult I appreciate. When you're learning something new, you need it broken down into simple, visual steps, and this book does just that.
