What a rip-off! So little information! Large font & only 1 or 2 paragraphs per page!

If you are looking for information, this book is not for you. There are 25 pages on this 8.5" x 8.5" book, and it's written in a large font with ridiculously large margins. You get 2 paragraphs per page, but some pages have only 1 small paragraph due to photos. It's absurd that someone would write a book that's not for children in this format. The information is very basic and can easily be found online. The writer supposedly has a PH.D. but a kid in high school can write a better book. I don't care about the price; it's just wasted money, even for $1. I will donate it to the local library. I just paid $300 and $500 for the right books, but the content has to match the price. Even for $13, there's nothing here worth that much!
