Dewey's Gospel Balloon Routines #3 - book review

Dewey's Gospel Balloon Routines/No 3 by Ralph G. Dewey

Paperback (June 1988)

Like the rest of the series, this book is a compilation of Ralph Dewey's "Good News Balloons" columns from Christian Conjurer magazine, edited, updated and supplemented by new material. It's a very nice resource, which I recommend to balloon workers, caring clowns or clown ministers. Although it's much longer that the first book in the series, like all of Ralph Dewey's books, it's more of a pamphlet (28 pages) than a book, but a bargain at the price ($4.50 as of 09/02/2001). It makes a very nice sequel to the second book in the series, in that it's actually an entire half-hour routine, presented in detail.

The book includes:

Dedication
Introduction
Starting your own balloon ministry
Zacchaeus shimmy
Jonah and the Whale
Orbiting Quarter
Wormy Apple
"Hugh-Mon-Bean" character
Swan and egg
Good band bad life
Tricky inflations
God's Armor
Gospel ideas for balloon animals

All in all, a nice little volume, inexpensive and worthwhile. Recommended to gospel balloon workers, clown ministers, (and even 'ordinary' ministers). Rated 5 clowns
