Summary: A "Must" Book for Home Vermicomposters!
Review:
Mary Appelhof's book is both amusing and educational. This is the "Vermi Bible" for most people who compost their household waste with worms (vermicomposting).
This 2nd edition includes description and discussion on commercially-available vermicomposting bins. Unfortunately, with the excitement and growing interest in worm composting, there are bins now available that are not reviewed in the book. (I guess we'll need a 3rd Edition!)
For the beginner as well as the worm hobbyist, I recommend this book highly.

Summary: Wait! There's a Better One!
Review: Anyone who is interested in this topic must read "Recycle With Earthworms: The Red Wiggler Connection"
In my opinion it is a much better book than "Worms Eat My Garbage," but definitely does not get the recognition deserved!
Check it out! It's awesome!

Summary: Everything you ever wanted to know about vermicomposting
Review: The title says it all--this is an everything you need to know sort of book. Worm composting is easier and neater than you think, and Mary Appelhof's enthusiasm is contagious. This a great idea for schoolkids: hands-on science, hands-on recycling with visible results.

Summary: Great Book for those with an interest in worms
Review: This is an excellent book for anyone interested in lowering the ammount of garbage they send to the landfills. If you have an interest in raising more healthy plants, better fising bait, or just want the experience this is the book to start with. While written on a 10th grade reading level, this book is wonderful reading for anyone. My background is in biology and I found some of the side notes very useful. This is a book that everyone should read even if you have no desire to raise worms.
