That book was one of the first books I bought.

Somewhere there is a balloon blog similar to the "365 days of balloons", where someone goes through the book, making one model a day.

I can't remember where I read it, but if I can find it I will post a link

Hi Phoenix, yes I went to that link as well. There was a mention of Thelma I believe as well on the blog, did we post a link on the forum to it?

Just found the link, it was Danny who posted it.

It's well worth a read through.

Hi All

If one was to buy just one balloon book, what one should it be?
