Great for beginners and seasoned Dragon keepers alike

This is a very excellent reference manual for anyone who wishes to keep and enjoy Bearded Dragon lizards. It is eminently readable, well-organized, and gives the reader a clear idea of what to do and what not to do as regards raising Dragons. These animals have become very popular as pets in many parts of the world due to their cool appearance, nice personalities, and hardiness. This book gives the reader pretty much what he or she needs to know in selecting and caring for a Bearded Dragon. Although much of this information can be found for free on the Internet, I nevertheless enjoyed reading this book and I did learn some new things about caring for dragons. Further, some of the information on the Internet is either wrong, or at least controversial. This book derives its sources from qualified veterinarians and naturalists. One of the things I really like about this book is the "FAQ" (Frequently Asked Questions) that appear throughout the text. These are generally Q & As to common problems and errors in raising Bearded Dragons. I wish I had had this book when I first got my Beardie; I made one or two of the errors that this book warns about. If you are going to buy one book about caring for Bearded Dragons, this one is the one to get. It is also a fun read.
