Create awesome artwork with your thumb as a paintbrush and the included ink pads (blue, orange, purple, and green-thumb green) as paint. For the finishing touch, add some personality with a few pen strokes. All these tools (except the fingers) come with the book in a convenient, reclosable, storage case. And when your thumbs need a rest, give your other digits a chance: play Finger Four Square or Tic Tac Toe — now with real toes!
Klutz is a publishing company started in Palo Alto, California in 1977 and acquired by Scholastic Inc. in 2002. The first Klutz book was a how-to guide titled Juggling for the Complete Klutz, which came provided with juggling beanbags attached in a mesh bag. The book was created by three friends who graduated from Stanford University: Darrell Lorentzen, John Cassidy, and B.C. Rimbeaux. Since then the company has continued to specialize in activity-driven books sold along with other items needed for the activity. Not all the books are about developing a skill; there has also been a geography book containing, among other physical attachments, packets of rice corresponding to the average daily caloric intake among the poorest people of the world. Many of their books are spiral bound and teach various crafts. The items needed are usually included with the book, e.g. the juggling guide. The Klutz credo is: Create wonderful things, be good, have fun.
