Very basic. If you've got a kid who just isn't catching on even though you give him cardboard and scissors, or if you don't have cardboard and scissors, I suppose you could use this. But it ends with a few examples of easy equivalent fractions like 1/3 and 2/6. It does have an extensive 'further reading' page and I bet something from there would be more worthwhile for most families.
