1: Great for the beginner, but very short and overpriced
If you haven't created mobiles before and are interested in where to start then you'll probably find this book interesting; it will help teach you the first steps in mobile creation and stimulate your thinking about mobiles.
But I do feel the book is lacking, particularly in that the information seems relevant only to beginners, but also that the book is so short, and for the price this is a big disappointment. Amazon product information shows it as 80 pages but if you subtract the front pages and table of contents it has 73 pages, and of those 13 are blank pages for sketching your own mobile ideas. $18.95 for a 60 page book in black and white with no photos (only sketches) seems a bit expensive to me.
Still, there aren't that many good books on creating mobiles so you may want to splurge on this one.

2: Mobile Mania
TR's book is entertaining as well as instructional. He is a wonderful teacher: precise, imaginative, and sincere. A must for anyone in love with mobiles.

3: "Making Creative Mobiles" is a Winner
Clearly, this is an artist whose life is mobiles; what an immignation. This is a great book for both ideas and techniques. Inspirational!

4: surprising mobile
I read Tim Rose's book in an afternoon and built my first mobile with things laying about. I turned out the light to leave for the day, and when I looked back into the room, my mobile was dancing in the moonlight. What a good book.
