Industry Reviews
"A well written, beautifully illustrated introductory book on the development of bonsai. In fact, I wish that I had this book on my shelf when I first jumped into growing trees many years ago . . . This little book would fit very well into a beginner's library but it also has numerous nuggets for the experienced practitioner."--American Bonsai Society Journal
"The book is small in size, but it is packed with fascinating and practical information about these unique trees, which are attracting attention among beginner gardeners searching for alternatives to small-scale succulents as well as ways to bring a sense of tranquility to their homes, inside and out."--Oregon Live
"We have waited a long time for a concise introductory bonsai book written by an expert, and we finally have it. Dupuich's book has the earmarks of a classic."--Michael Hagedorn, author of Post-Dated: The Schooling of an Irreverent Bonsai Monk
"This well written and beautifully illustrated book covers bonsai care along with authoritative information for creating your own bonsai. Highly recommended for beginners."--William N. Valavanis, publisher of International Bonsai magazine and founder of the U.S. National Bonsai Exhibition
"Without the proper guidance and understanding, bonsai can be challenging. The Little Book of Bonsai helps you develop your vision, see nature at its best, and re-create it in a smaller size. With Dupuich as your guide, your bonsai journey can begin!"--Kathy Shaner, curator of the Bonsai Garden at Lake Merritt in Oakland, California
"Dupuich has the best bonsai blog online, so it's not surprising that The Little Book of Bonsai is the best book for new bonsai enthusiasts."--Boon Manakitivipart, award-winning bonsai artist and teacher
