Chapter 1: Ancient History
Yo-Yos have remained one of the most popular children's toys for over 75 years.  There are three major reasons that can explain the yo-yo's unprecedented popularity.  First, yo-yos are within just about anyone's budget.  Second, while it has a simple design, it is capable of performing complex tricks in the hands of an expert.  Third, it is small enough to fit in a pocket or purse.

I just wanted to take the time to thank you for the wonderful program you did for the children here in Grosse Pointe.  They keep telling me what a great time they had.  I am happy to report that the yo-yo books are leaping off the shelves.
