1.0 out of 5 stars Read Carefully, November 17, 2006

By	Tra "Tra" (Woodhaven, MI United States) - See all my reviews

I did not read the real small print at the top saying it was a "pocket guide". My mistake, I thought I was getting a book for $10, but literally is the size of the palm of my hand. Mostly just definitions which are taught in grade school. Not very impressed for the money. I think Webster's dictionary is cheaper.
