This book is ideal for the beginner who is just starting out on a new hobby of whittling. It gives you details of all the equipment you need and close up pictures of the techniques for the cuts etc. However the majority of the projects are cockerels - cockerels leaning back, cockerels leaning forward, cockerels looking up - depending on the angle of the fork in the twig. For inspiration for a wider range of projects you need to look elsewhere.
