This book is just what I wanted. I started beading and learning things on my own by trial and error. But I knew there were things I needed to learn how to do, or see what else was available. This book filled that need. It is easy to use, and since it is a spiral, it lays flat and stays on the page. Lots of pictures, concise explanations and very thorough.
I highly recommend this book, if you are a novice to intermediate beader especially, but it is great for experts who need a refresher course or who want to know other ways of doing things.

For a beginner- this book is a very good choice. Full color pictures and detailed instructions. Nice little spiral book and a great size to lay out flat. If you are already doing bead work, this one is not for you. It is really just a book for those starting out. It would make a good gift to give to a first time beader. Everything in the book is basic to most on going beaders.
