Must have first guide

Excellent guide for children and young adults to learn about gems and minerals. Illustrations are wonderful, as well as the descriptions of each gem or mineral. This guide is perfect for anyone interested in collecting gems and minerals or becoming a rockhound.

good little guide

This is a good read and a good pocket guide to carry with you. Only thing is it dont give you detailed info on certain minerals and gemstones. They give you a picture and name but not much info but on alot of it 3/4 of the book is awesome but the few details are misding. Whats inside: tells you about minerals, gemstones and fossils. It tells you some info on where its at in the earth how its made and where to find it. There is more also to much to write. Would recommend reading it
