2 of 5 Stars! – Customer review on 12/11/2007

A little disappointed have paid almost 410 for this. This book is TINY. I was expecting the regular sized book...but the one I got is just a pocket book. I'll know for the future to be sure to read the book dimensions.

totally disappointed with the size of this book! I thought it was a normal sized book. Still a great book though. I really learned my lesson to read the dimensions and the reviews!

1 of 5 Stars! – Customer review on 17/02/2010

I have been sent a review request and see that nothing has been done about my complaint to mark this clearly as a miniature book. RUBBISH size miniature is a rip off and, as I also said before it only gets a 1 because there is no option to give it 0. Also 4 stars is false advertising - read the reviews, check the ratings and do the maths. Fishpond are lying robbers!!!

I was disappointed with the size of the book not realizing that it came in different sizes. I think it is grossly over priced. Would loose again on returning it to you. I could have picked up the larger version at Woolworths Supermarket for $15.00.

LOVE the story, but was disappointed in the size of the book itself. Maybe i didnt read the description of it clearly, but considering the price it was i really did expect a larger book, not the teeny weeny one that came :(

I really should have read the reviews. This is a great book but it is so small that it is unreadable. I can't really see any reason why this product exists in the first place.

I think it should be made more obvious that this book is TINY. I've learned my lesson.
The title needs to say 'pocket sized'.
