Take what you need in the picture beside here
You take your yarn and put the end under the front cover of the book. Start wrapping around the book until you feel comfortable with your person's body size.NOTE: You person will be fat if the wrap-around is thick! Girls:Add a second color for the hair. Mind you make it less than the body! Boys: No second color, the boys look better bald. (no offense intended)
Tie it (this will become the hairline) and slip it off the book. If you hold it up you will have to cut directly under the tie.
Seperate the two colors and tie off the head. Take off a chunk of yarn from the body and tie it close-ish to the head. repeat on opposite side. Go down an a bit from the "armpits" and tie off the waist. Boys: Seperate the remainder of the yarn in half. Tie these halves and voila, legs. Girls: Leave the remainder of the yarn alone. (optional for girls: cut a felt rectangle a bit longer than the girl's skirt and tie around the waist. leave about a centimeter above the waist so the apron doesn't fall out.
Have fun and play with them! After all they might be a flipping acrobat! Sorry for the blurriness. It is suppossed to do a flip.
