Great book as a reference
I was never much of a knot person, even in my days as a Boy Scout, but "My First Book of Knots" is a great reference for those that want to learn knot-tying. The book goes over a fair amount of useful knots, sorted by category, and also mentions the right application for each knot, which I think is very important. Most of the instruction on tying the particular knot comes from the illustrations which are very colorful and easy to see. There is also mention of variants in the knots to accomplish specific tasks. However a few of the illustrations are of just one picture and not step-by-step (mostly variants of knots), and I find that some of these pictures are better viewed on a tablet screen instead of over a smartphone because of the small size. Nevertheless, you should be able to find a knot for any type of situation and this book is a great aid in finding that particular knot.

5 year old loved it!
My grandson enjoyed this book for his fifth birthday. He successfully tied a rope to his bed and threw it out the second story window while Dad was in the shower. Fortunately he did not successfuly rappel up the building as he was caught in the act!

My kids LOVE this
Got this for my son for his 8th birthday. It’s been a solid favorite for both him and his younger sister all year. Easy to follow pictures for independent study. He learned so much from this he was even able to teach knots to his Cub Scout leader!

Great buy!!!
I got this for my son for his birthday and I am so glad I got it! I looked at quite a few but decided on this one because of the illustrations. It has everything from basic knots, tying a tie, fishing knots, and everything in between. It is such a great book and I know he's going to love it. Highly recommend!

Superb book with amazing illustrations
Full of colorful illustrations. Loved reading it. The intermediate steps are very useful andare very easy to follow even for a kid. The part that describes "where it's used" is really crisp and makes each knot interesting and gives context when and where to use. Really worth the money.
