This book is the latest from juggling guru Dave Finnigan, who has teamed up with his daughter Dorothy and son Ben to produce a fun and effective instructional guidebook about juggling. The book is geared toward newcomers to juggling all the way up to very advanced jugglers.

The book has fourteen chapters, each of which focuses on virtually any juggling technique you can think of, from balls to clubs, boxes to hats, it's all there. This book serves as a visual how-to guidebook, which includes over 250 photographs illustrating things such as a three-scarf cascade pattern all the way up to spinning balls and plates. The design of the book takes you through step-by-step beginning with basic implements such as balls and scarves and progresses to more intermediate and advanced apparatus like rings, clubs, Diablo and Devil sticks.

The book covers individual as well as partner juggling, and teaches proper techniques for all types of juggling apparatus. This Finnigans' present over 150 different juggling skills and games which makes this book a must have for all talent levels. I found the pictures and cues very easy to follow and actually learned how to do several new tricks. By starting with the correct fundamentals, everyone can learn to juggle successfully with the help of this great resource.

I would recommend this book to anyone that teaches juggling or is trying to learn to juggle on his or her own. The precise detail of the narratives helps to guide you through the process for each individual skill. The pictures and accompanying diagram help to put everything together. The vast amount of skills included in the book insures that you will always have something new to try and you will never get bored.
