a great gift!

the book itself is awesome! it has great graphics and interesting fun facts, I can’t wait to gift it to my husband! i rated this three stars due to there being a sticky glue substance on the book which made it impossible to open the pages without them tearing. i exchanged it in person so i could pick out a version i liked and many of them had faults to them but i found one good enough to gift!
