I love that this is a pocket-size edition, yet it still contains ample information about various rocks. The illustrations are very vibrant and makes this guide even more appealing. I recommend this guide to anyone who is a rock collector and wants an easy reference on-the-go guide to bring along on their adventures.

I love this book!!! I did not expect much when I ordered it due to its small size. But I am happily surprised at this book. I am reading it every night since it arrived. This is packed with information from the basic minerals to the rocks made up of crystals and rock formations and mountains. I have been traveling around gathering all the possible Michigan rocks and minerals. Sometimes they can be hard to identify. This book helps a lot. This will be going on trips with me from now on.

I obtained some rocks while on vacation or my nine year old grandson. As he is quite inquisitive, I ordered this book to help him identify what kind of rocks they are. Is book is basic, but works for a 9 year old budding rock hound. I gave it all to him last night...he was so excited! The book is "basic" and would work as long as you don't want intricate details. The pictures are good and easy to compare to rocks you may have. I would recommend.

Ao meu ver, o livro é muito bom para quem pensa em seguir carreira nas áreas geográficas como Geologia, por exemplo. Leitura rápida e consistente e, também, detalhado pra caramba, com muitas ilustrações, etc.

3 countries make up North America…USA, Canada and Mexico. Was disappointed to find nothing listed for Mexico. Should change title as it is not correct. I realize that it is the publisher/authors error so gave you 3 instead of zero stars
