As you will notice, if you see some of the early videos or images uploaded by readers, I have updated the book's cover, removing the illustrations the original one had. The reason for this change is that I've realized the book was perceived as a children's book. As much as I believe the book is great for -older- school-age children, some of the pieces are a bit too complex for the youngest ones. I hope this change will give you more clarity about the target reader for this anthology! Stay safe and thank you for your honest feedback!
