    5.0 out of 5 stars Highly Recommended by International Sugar Glider Association, March 12, 2000
    By Erebor Telperion (Laurence Harbor, New Jersey USA) - See all my reviews
    This is simply the best book on sugar gliders currently available. As president of the ISGA, Inc., I always recommend it to all people who contact us for guidance on caring for their pets. It has excellent information on the animal's physical characteristics and natural origins, as well as clear and helpful information on the domesticated pet. There are other books on the market that were written before all the facts were in on sugar gliders, so I would recommend anyone to make this book their primary resource.

    ***edited in 2007*** -- In seven years, we've come a long way in sugar glider nutrition. There are enough good foods on the market now that no one should be feeding their gliders cat food. This book still has a lot to offer, but I suggest checking internet websites to get the latest information on feeding.

    5.0 out of 5 stars The best out of the three books I purchased., February 18, 2000
    By Sheri Myrick (Gilbert, Arizona) - See all my reviews
    Considering the addition of Sugar Gliders to you family? If so, please read this book. It will help you decide if you are ready, and have what it takes, to commit to becoming a loving Glider owner. Already have Gliders? Still, read this book. It provides pertinent information to create, and maintain, both an interesting and nutritional life for your pet(s).

    As a licensed breeder of these unique animals, I believe this book has the best, most accurate information available. I highly recommend it to anyone that has, or is thinking of having a Sugar Glider.
