4.0 out of 5 stars I have very mixed emotions about this book., January 5, 2008

By	critters - See all my reviews

On the plus side, Gail Green has some EXCELLENT, novel, and varied-difficulty projects in this book, but I find the "tips on how to find, feed & train your pet" to be excessive and intrusive for such a small book. Some of the tips fit with the subject matter and work better, such as scratching, along with making scratching boards, or photography tips with projects that use photos. Some of the information, like breeds, ages, behavior, and finding a pet just seems to need another book, but I 'm happy to say that I haven't noticed any faults within the information itself.
