Book excerpt: Introducing a pop bead book unlike any other. We've improved the beads so they create the perfect pop, and then tossed in some animal-shaped bead for good measure. The result? A step-by-step guide to creating zany spiders, sea stars and octopi, as well as illustrated playscapes for them to play on. You can also create classic necklaces, bracelets and chains but why would you when the critters are so much fun?
