The Miniature Book of Miniature Golf [With 2 Balls & Putter]

By Mike Vago

The perfect golfing gift: A book that is a complete, working 9-hole miniature golf course, with miniature golf balls and putter included. The first book you can play through. The book that's a true original. Featuring nine themed courses, from pirates to dinosaurs to the classic windmill, The Miniature Book of Miniature Golf celebrates the silliness and the golf-for-everyone attitude of Putt-Putt. Each page in the book is a cleverly designed hole, modeled on real mini golf courses. Tap the ball through the grooves and make sure to avoid the obstacles. Then see if you can get it in the clown's mouth on the last hole. Every hole is par fun.

Customer Reviews

Awesome! Highly Recommend!

My mother in law got this for my son when he turned 7. He LOVES this book and has been playing with it on and off for the last 7 months. His 5 year old and 2 year old brothers love it too (it's probably not recommend for young children due to the small golf balls and club, but we watch our son closely when he plays with it). It's nice and portable too! Very fun!

Very clever and very well-made

My best friend and I used to play a LOT of miniature golf years ago, so I bought this as a b-day gift for her. When I got it, it was WAY more clever than I anticipated. You really do have to see it. The pages are intricately designed and built, and that makes them challenging to play. One hole in particular (the hedge maze one) will drive you nuts. Even the text in the book is informative (when true) and funny (when not-so-true). Again, it's so well-made that there's a certain "wow" factor when you flip through it. This thing would be perfect on someone's desk at work.

Perfect Father's Day Gift

When I saw this book I had one of those Aha! moments--I can't believe no one thought of this before! Genius! Cute concept, well-executed, fun, and really kinda challenging. I had ordered it as a father's day gift, but when it arrived I couldn't resist playing with it, so I ordered another one for my father.

really cool!

I love this book! It's a book about miniature golf and actually is a miniature golf book (new Shimmer is a floor wax and a dessert topping!). Complete with a club and balls, you're ready to play. I bought a copy for myself and my father-in-law. When is the sequel coming because I want to play 9 more holes.

Part game, part book, all awesome!

Pictures don't really do this little book justice - only when you're holding it can you see just how nifty it actually is. The Miniature Book of Miniature Golf comes complete with a tiny golf club and two balls and plays like a real, albeit tiny, mini golf course. There are nine holes in all, including mini golf classics like the windmill, the sand trap, and the clown face. Beautiful to look at, fun to play, and highly addictive. My eleven-year-old nephew loves it, as does my dad (just as well, he's getting his own copy for Father's Day).
