The Little Book of Whittling June 27, 2008
Great book! Pictures and written instructions both very helpful. I would recommend it to anyone wanting to get started learning to whittle.
Wonderful Whittler December 10, 2007
This is a lovely little book and written in a very charming humorous manner. Every page is packed with clear coloured photos. Each project is easy to follow and there are loads of ideas for adapting the basics so that you can make your own stuff. There are lots of little tips about being on the trail and camping too. I love it.

I went to a local wood hobby shop and looked at several carving/whittling books. This one looked good so I bought it on ebay and saved some $s.
I'm a total novice, so this book was perfect. Full of photographs that explain every step. No previous experience necessary. Tip: I've managed to cut myself a few times so I'm wearing gloves until my technique improves. A very relaxing pastime. Highly recommended. If you are wondering which beginners book to buy then buy this.

If you are new to whittling (like me) this was a good book to get started on. Lots of things that you can make right away.
