Good But Not Comprehensive

I knew almost nothing about guinea pigs before, so I thought this was an okay book. However, it just isn't as comprehensive as I'd like. For instance, what I wanted most of all was a list of fruits and vegetables that guinea pigs can and can't eat, and this book doesn't have that. It's very vague with a broad overview of the topics discussed. In the future, I'd probably get a book with more detail.
