Natural Beauty is the Best Message!

Reviewer: BeInspired!
I really enjoyed this book. One of the best messages is that natural beauty is real beauty. There are a lot of great resources listed and very practical ideas. I find that wearing natural and organic fabrics makes me feel more comfortable and in harmony. In particular, I feel great when I'm wearing bamboo clothing!

Reviewer: Meghan Meyers
This is, hands-down, the best green living guide I've read to-date. It is well-organized and approachable and filled with practical information for everyday living. You'll find budget-friendly tips to fix your home and easy-to-digest explanations of today's hot topics (i.e hybrid vs. PZEV vs. electric vehicles vs. fuel cells). I LOVE THIS BOOK. This is the first and last book you'll need to help you understand the eco issues facing us today.
