    <body><![CDATA[This is supposedly the bible on vermicomposting.  I never found much in it, but then I inherited my first worm bin, and it is much easier to keep one going than start one.  Definitely has the basics to get you started, but I've also found helpful information about random questions like &quot;Why are...<a href="http://www.goodreads.com/review/show/19635957">more...</a>]]></body>

    <body><![CDATA[Almost too much information so it's a bit overwhelming.  I really think the subject needs to be seen to be totally understood, but at least the author covers all the bases and makes the reader aware of what alternatives they have]]></body>

    <body><![CDATA[This book is an invaluable resource for anyone looking to set up their first worm bin.  I thought I could get by without paying the $12 my first go-round - and I ended up killing off my entire batch of worms!  My second batch is doing much better due to the tips I picked up from this book.]]></body>

    <body><![CDATA[<br/>Practical, straightforward. A little more detailed on worm reproduction, as opposed to pest prevention or best ways to manage your box, than I might have liked. The necessary info is pretty much there though. I guess I'll report back after we actually try it. Bin built, awaiting worms.]]></body>

The book is straightforward and a quick read (163 pages with bibliography and index) and it will inspire you to get some worms.]]></body>
