Reviews
This book promises " . . . an impressive array of formulas for making your own cleaning solutions from natural, healthful, and environmentally-safe substances." There are 579 cleaning recipes, including 98 stain remedies, for everything around the house and car. Nontoxic cleaning is done with things that are found in most homes--baking soda, borax, vinegar. Such remedies are a boon to those sensitive to harsh chemicals--people as well as the Earth. Better than Heloise's Hints for a Healthy Planet ( LJ 4/1/90), this book or Don Aslett's Stainbuster's Bible ( LJ 2/1/90) would fulfill most patrons' needs.
