More detailed in how-to-aspects and less juvenile in tone. Various kinds of gardening, -- window box, roof, terrarium, dish, with plenty of useful information on soils, temperature, light and plants; animals and their breeding and care; handicrafts, -- leather work, book binding, etching, pottery, plastics, soap carving, p work. Good of its kind and should be useful for workshop library shelves, club rooms, etc.
