Want a Dog? Here's an Excellent Place to Start!
The "Everything Dog Book" actually sticks pretty much to the basics of dog care and training, but it presents this information in a highly readable and thought-provoking manner. Want a dog? This book asks YOU why, and what you are looking for in a dog. There are helpful worksheets to assess lifestyle and whether or not ANY dog should be in your future. I like that. At times, DeVito almost ...

Perfect to help you choose a breed.
This book covers just about everything you would need to know to bring your puppy home and care for it properly. I recommend it to both new puppy owners and people trying to find a breed right for them. The book also list a short Pros and Cons for each breed. I still recommend puppy training classes but the book will help you get through the first few months without the classes. -S Redwood ...

Triumph Books (IL), 2006

Must Read for True Giants Fans
This book tells the history of one of the classiest men in the history of not only the NFL, but all of sports. Even those of you who are not Giants fans could appreciate Wellington's contributions to the NFL after reading this book. It's so much more than just a Giants history lesson (as so many books before it unfortunately are). Only glaring issue was the score for Superbowl XXI was wrong ...

The Goldfish: An Owner's Guide to a Happy Healthy Pet

8 reviews

Howell Book House, 1996

Good first book
I just set up a small outdoor pond and was not really interested in Koi because of the cost and the fact that they can get big so goldfish seemed the logical choice. Other than having one in a bowl when I was a kid, I didn't know anything about them. Now I know I will never put one in a bowl again and have learned all kinds of interesting things about these fascinating creatures. I am sure ...

The Everything Tropical Fish Book

Adams Media, 2000

Excellent for the overwhelmed beginner!
Many books on this topic are as confusing as the vast range of fish supplies in the pet stores. As a first-time betta owner, I thought my fish was just aging till a slightly more knowledgeable friend told me that "gray" means "illness," and not "old age." The chapter on fish health was very helpful and now it looks like we may get the full life-span out of him. Information in this excellent book ...

The Mini Fondue Kit (Pocket Packets)

Carlo Devito

Running Press Miniature Editions, 2001

Useless for humans; fun for puppies!
I found the Mini Fondue Kit very cute and charming, though useless. The recipes in the book are tailored for the tiny pot, and aren't worth trying out. However, despite being useless for any normal-sized human being, it's just perfect for my 8" tall stuffed puppy! My puppy also has the Mini Zen Gardening Kit, and plans to get the Mini Sushi Kit.

The Encyclopedia Of International Organized Crime

Checkmark Books, 2005

Too much information taken from the Internet
Fortunately, I bought this book new, for 1/3 of the list price from an Amazon affiliate, which tempers my annoyance with the poor quality of this book. While I appreciate the honesty and avoidance of plagurism by listing the sources of the information, nearly every article in the encyclopedia is taken from the Internet. If you can use Google, you can find the exact same sources online. This ...
