My favorite book as a kid!: This was my favorite book growing up. I love the drawings and the ideas the boy came up to do with his string. I decided to go online to look for a copy I could read to my own kids. Now that I see how rare it is, I think I'm going to beg my parents for my old book back.

Its a well worn book and has had its spine taped since it was read so much. But that's ok -- I still love it. (Besides, its all ready personalized for me -by me- in big red crayon "Kerry") Show Less

A Big Ball of String is full of ideas on what a kid can do with a big ball of string. The boy creates remote door openers and artistic decorations and other things simply by using his imagination. It encourages young children to use their own imaginations and it is easily readable by a beginning

I want to use the word "pedantic," but I guess what I really mean is something like ... excessively interested in string.
