Customer Reviews:
• Limited Use 10 November, 2006
Very limited use. It seems to show weeds that basically look like flowers. If you're looking for common back yard pest weeds, this isn't the book.

• Good, But I Still Didn't Find What I Was Looking For 05 January, 2007
This book has a lot of information in it, but it doesn't have all weeds, I don't think any book could. And I still couldn't find out the information on the weed that I was looking for.

• Just Right 24 May, 2008
The Golden Guide is just what I wanted. Not to small and not to large. Compact enough to carry in your back pocket as you go through your yard. Illustrations are life like and detailed. Easy to read even for the younger kids. Not alot of large words you don't understand. Seems some of my grass is actually weeds.

• A Lot Of Info In A Small Package 29 June, 2007
Price and size are what makes this guide so great. It provides a good overview of weeds in a very portable format, particularly for my young daughter to put in her pocket before hitting the trail.
The small size, however, means that the illustrations are not as large or detailed as we would prefer. It also limits the amount of specific information that can be included. We recently relocated to the Pacific Northwest and have found region-specific books (particularly from Lone Pine Publishers) to be superb.
I recommend this as a great resource at a very good price.
