3.0 out of 5 stars book, or pamphlet?

I bought this book for my (10 year old) son for an upcoming trip through Arizona, as he is a rock collector, and will undoubtedly add to his collection on our trip. I am certain he will enjoy this book. The pictures are large and clear, the explanations straight-forward.

But I am having a difficult time stomaching the price. It is a skimpy little book; honestly, more of a pamphlet.

It's one of those purchases where I've asked myself: If you saw this in a book store at this price, would you buy it?

My answer is no.

FWIW the consensus around our dinner table was that it should cost around $3.

Wasn't very helpful for finding areas to dig . OK for identifying gems and minerals.

What can you say about a booklet on gems and minerals of Arizona. It's a booklet on gems and minerals of Arizona. Unless you are a geologist specializing in gems and minerals of Arizona, it's a great booklet to have. And it came a week early.
