(3) 4-6 Illustrated by Alan Tiegreen. Though it maintains a light tone, this book takes yo-yoing seriously. After presenting a brief history of the toy, along with definitions and basic suggestions--including safety measures--it gives instructions for beginning, intermediate, and advanced tricks. The book design is no-frills; simple black-and-white line drawings help the black block-text explain how to perform the tricks. Bib.
