5.0 out of 5 stars Great Book!, October 9, 2001

By	"bqbambi" (Florida) - See all my reviews

Very easy to read. It's not boring and too scientific like some other dream books out there. Very helpful in making the reader understand the different types of dreams. i highly recommend it. It's the type of book you can put down and come back to it later when the mood strikes.

1.0 out of 5 stars Not what I expected, March 8, 2007

By	Janine K. Adams (Phoenix, AZ USA) - See all my reviews (REAL NAME)

This review is from: Dreams for Dummies (Hardcover)

I guess I failed to read the "small print" with regards to this "book" being a "Miniature Edition." I ordered this book because I know the "For Dummies" series of books are usually quite good. Maybe so for this book if it was a regular-sized book. For the price, it should be full size. Didn't find it very helpful for what I bought it for - understanding dreams. Not much to read - takes about 5 minutes. Buyer beware - be sure and read the "small print" before assuming you're ordering a standard-sized book!

By	Black Ice (Portland, OR) - See all my reviews

This book helped me to see my dreams as practical resources and not continue to see them as enigmas. I enjoyed this book and recommend it to anyone who enjoys their dreams. What more can I say??
