A disappointment submitted by Lady Macbeth on July 15, 2021, 10:52am This book was a real disappointment, and I feel so bad for saying it. It covers way too much way too quickly and nothing is covered in enough depth to be informative. This was in the teen section but I wouldnt give it to anyone older than middle school and I wouldn't be surprised if they got bored of it really quickly.
