Please, please do not buy this book for a child. Ages listed are 4-8. That is not accurate. I depicts a life of a man from childhood through the death of his wife. It may have merit, but not as described. It is not a "Board Book." Each page is paper, not boards. It don't know who this book is appripriate for. It is quite depressing in my opinion. I have contacted Amazon for a refund and for someone to review this book and change the description.
