Product Description
Product Description
The perfect golfing gift: A book that is a complete, working 9-hole miniature golf course, with miniature golf balls and putter included. The first book you can play through. The book that's a true original. Featuring nine themed courses, from pirates to dinosaurs to the classic windmill, The Miniature Book of Miniature Golf celebrates the silliness and the golf-for-everyone! attitude of Putt-Putt. Each page in the book is a cleverly designed hole, modeled on real mini golf courses. Tap the ball through the grooves and make sure to avoid the obstacles. Then see if you can get it in the clown's mouth on the last hole. Every hole is par fun.

really cool!, May 14 2009

This review is from: The Miniature Book of Miniature Golf: A 9-Hole Course with Water Hazards, Trick Shots, and Classic Obstacles (Board book)
I love this book! It's a book about miniature golf and actually is a miniature golf book (new Shimmer is a floor wax and a dessert topping!). Complete with a club and balls, you're ready to play. I bought a copy for myself and my father-in-law. When is the sequel coming because I want to play 9 more holes.

Very clever and very well-made, May 15 2009
By D. Kostek - Published on Amazon.com
This review is from: The Miniature Book of Miniature Golf: A 9-Hole Course with Water Hazards, Trick Shots, and Classic Obstacles (Board book)
My best friend and I used to play a LOT of miniature golf years ago, so I bought this as a b-day gift for her. When I got it, it was WAY more clever than I anticipated. You really do have to see it. The pages are intricately designed and built, and that makes them challenging to play. One hole in particular (the hedge maze one) will drive you nuts. Even the text in the book is informative (when true) and funny (when not-so-true). Again, it's so well-made that there's a certain "wow" factor when you flip through it. This thing would be perfect on someone's desk at work.

Perfect Father's Day Gift, May 14 2009
By J. Oden - Published on Amazon.com

This review is from: The Miniature Book of Miniature Golf: A 9-Hole Course with Water Hazards, Trick Shots, and Classic Obstacles (Board book)
When I saw this book I had one of those Aha! moments--I can't believe no one thought of this before! Genius! Cute concept, well-executed, fun, and really kinda challenging. I had ordered it as a father's day gift, but when it arrived I couldn't resist playing with it, so I ordered another one for my father.
Listmania!
