Very disappointing
Very disappointing, looks poor as a gift. Small, not very attention grabbing. Story seems good but appearance let’s entire book down if you are gifting it. It arrived with a small bent corner

The book I got is great
The book I got is great, it just is a little disconcerting that although the address for this company is listed on Long Island, the book comes from the United Kingdom. This should be explicit.
