I am so Mom of the Year for getting this book for my kiddos! Thanks to Fox Chapel Publishing for sending a copy for a review. All kids are nuts for fidget spinners, and this book is a way of breathing new life into the obsession--and getting more use out of the pile of them your kids have accumulated! Grab a copy now, and thank me later ;)
Seeing as fidget spinners seem to be all the rage at the moment, it's great to see a book featuring things you can actually do with them, other than just 'fidgeting'. I have often wondered what more you could do with them, and so this book ticks that box. There's a great introduction, but straight away the tricks seem almost impossible and far-fetched. I'm not sure what I was expecting, but things like trying to get a dart onto a dart board through a spinning fidget spinner is not something I would be wanting children in my company to be doing! A great idea but the delivery leaves a lot to be desired.
What a waste of paper and time. Our “expert” admits he has only been using fidget spinners since March 2017, and we now have a full book, with pictures and all in September. The main question my brain asks is WHY DO WE NEED THIS? Seriously, why is this book needed. Spinners will be a fad and the authors even explain that very little is known about the need for these devices, and if they actually do the good they claim. For most these sometime cheap and sometimes expensive devices will be just more stuff accumulating at the bottom of the junk drawer. The one thing that saves this book is that they explain how they work and how they are made.
It's started with basic explanations of what is a spinner and what it's made of. Then it present 50 tricks that you can really have come up with by yourself if you have a bit of imagination, and by the end, the trick are just crazy stupid stuff impossible to do, just to be funny I guest... A book that is not garbage, but that isn't really necessary neither!
