Pretty good. Lots of cool, up-close pictures of the critters in your compost. Explains what each critter does and more about them. Last few pages tells how to set up and care for your own compost pile.

This was in a library discard pile. I have to admit there were facts in this book I was unaware of.

Photographs and informational text capture the critters one may see in a compost bin or garden.
