This book is pretty simple, but it explains really well how to tell different cactus apart. I would’ve liked a bit more information, but it’s still a very practical guide.

A little pocket guide for the novice of various cactus of the American Southwest. It contains very simplistic drawing of various cacti and their thorns. It would also be ideal for children.
