Summary: excelent pictures,fine information,completely enjoyable
Review: As an avid gardener and reader, I found lots of information about what to do with my gourds (first how to dry them), it had fine pictures of what others have done, and projects that look easy to do while being worth while. The book gives a history of gourds. Where to get diverse seeds, and contacts for others interested in gourds (ie the gourd soiety). I've been tickled to share this book with friends, all have thought it wonderful.

Summary: Gourds? Yes, gourds. Are you sure? Sure I'm sure.
Review: Well, I bought this book because I was bored, and wouldn't you know it, it was about gourds! (It didn't teach me how to rhyme, I learned that in college). I don't really like gourds. They seem so hostile some times, you know what I mean? It's like they know youre going to carve them so they dont cooperate one bit. So now I'm using the book as a little wall that Im using to keep this mouse trapped in the corner of my bathroom. The book is heavy so he cant get out so I just feed him corn and keep him there. The book makes an excellent wall. I looked for a book about walls to use as the wall but I didn't have one. Well, time for my pill. Dipsy-do!
