Poorly laid-out, at times very very difficult to read, poorly researched... it's like a middle-schooler copied a bunch of stuff they found online and used a free trial app to create a book for a school project.
Entertaining book, especially for children who may not be aware of some of the topics covered in the book, but the information is quite outdated in some instances.
