I'm disappointed it doesn't come in a larger size

I did not realize this would be a miniature book. It is much too small in size and print for my eyes and holding in my hands. I'm disappointed it doesn't come in a larger size.

Watercolor Tips

I was very surprised to get a 3x5 small book. The contents are geast, but the size is very hard to read.

Very small book. Not easy to read

The size is in the description but I missed it. This book is small. It is packed with information but it is not easy to read due to the size of the book. I keep wanting to get a magnifying glass to read it. There are books on watercolor with the same info as this book that are not micro sized. I would not recommend this book unless you need a pocket size reference.
