This review is from: Christian Educator's Handbook on Children's Ministry, The: Reaching and Teaching the Next Generation (Paperback)

This product was wonderful except that the pages were missing letters. It appeared that the printing was malfunctioning on each page. Amazon did let us return the product but sent another one with similar defects. Then when we tried to return this product again they sent a gift certificate. THis was disappointing because we wanted the book not a certificate to buy something else.
