LIked it as I do most others that addresss our needs to keep our planet green. pm

Love this book!

This easy to read (pics & illustrations on every page), practical 2009 publication is just what I needed to give me a kick start... It covers everything from indoors to outdoors, pets, pests, babies, toys, offices, laundry, personal care products, "do's & dont's" and "how to's". In the past I hadn't paid much attention to what ingredients are in the products I use, however, since I've been dealing with health issues recently, I've been trying to "lighten the load" of toxins & carcinogens I expose myself to. Some I cannot avoid - others I'm not willing to "give up" (yet), but at least I'm more aware. It's a great book for "beginners" who want to learn about "being green" or a quick refresher for the experienced. It's not necessary to read from cover to cover - just hop around to the topics that interest you. I have already recommended this book to several friends, given it as a gift, and recommended it to my local library.

Awesome Book!

This book is so awesome! I can't say I've read a lot of these types of books, but this was so beautifully laid out, covered so much, and really gave a good foundation for those who want to detox their home and personal use products. I found it to be very practical without being over the top. Because of it, I have totally changed the products I use in my home and on my body. In fact, now I make many of my own cleaning and personal care products with very simple, money-saving ingredients, and I'm having fun doing it! I would definitely recommend this book to anyone looking to make their house a safe, green home!

Clean Home, Green Home, Fabulous Book!

This is one of the best books I've read on the subject. Very nicely laid out, extremely readable and full of down to earth (!) tips, instructions and ideas. Would highly recommend it.
