Not worth it-- get "Worms Eat My Garbage" instead-
Mary Appelhof's book is the superior introduction to vermiculture. Both books are too cutsey in tone, and the illustrations are equally unbearable, but typos abound in "Recycle", and that really burns my butter. While there are some unique ideas in this book (using sprouted birdseed to aid in aration is one), there is little else in here not covered by Appelhof. Appelhof's book is vastly more readable, despite the sometimes condescending tone she takes. I can't recommend "Recycle" unless you want to own as many books on vermiculture as you can get your hands on.

Composting with worms is sooooo much fun!!!!!
This book offers the absolute perfect explanation of vermicomposting and explains everything you need to know in order to setup and maintain your own composting system. It's an excellent resource for the topic! I highly recommend it! In my opinion, it deserves much more credit than Mary Appelhof's famous book on vermiculture! I'm so excited to have my own worm bin in operation now! Everyone deserves the experience and should definitely get a bin started for themselves!

great starter book
clearly covers all you need to know to get a worm 'farm' started. lots of background info so you really know what you are doing.
