Summary
I dislike the book. Maybe because I wasn’t focus or just wasn’t interested in the book. Of course if it had pictures it would catch my attention. I understand that the author of the book took there time with the book and didn’t think about the book being with pictures. I would recommend that a person that really like reading books would read it but someone like me pick a book with little pictures. Recommendation
