I really enjoyed this book. It was very well organized and I could understand all of the instructions easily. It was also very attractively done. I loved this book!

This book was bought by mistake but I thought I'd give it a try but I was very dissapointed in it. It did not offer very many creative projects or very detailed instructions. I enjoy the original books by Lin Wellford and will continue to use hers.

I was very disappointed in this book and wish I had not wasted my money. The pages are smaller than the standard 8.5 X 11 and there are not very many projects included. The projects that are included have inadequate directions. Most disappinting- I ordered the book based on a preview picture of a nativity figures done on rocks. Turns out the picture is just that - a picture ONLY with NO directions.

It is easy to understand. The writing is easy to read and follow. It contains several patterns which are easy to redraw on rocks. The book size is convenient, the lettering to read and the color photographs were appreciated.

This is a pretty good book on painting rocks and rock designs. If you like the rocks on the cover, you should like the other rocks in this book. You get more of what you see.The only problem I had, is the instructions were okay for adults, but not children. I would think children might be drawn to this type of book, but the instructions need to be a little more detailed for children. Also, some pictures are shown without any patterns for them in the book. The adults and children might want those.

Not sure why I am being asked to write a 2nd review when I already wrote one..but to repeat this book is GREAT and the directions are super and simple and the projects come out looking like they are suppose to...

This is my favorite book for rock painting. It takes you from A to Z. How to begin at the begin and end up with a nicely painted rock by beginners. The best book I own on painting. Thanks.

Thank you. When I returned to the store where I had just purchased one as a gift, they gleefully stated, "O' that was our last one!"Thank God someone out there is listening!
