Poor editing

I was first disappointed when I opened this book and saw the interior copy is set in Comic Sans. That font is unprofessional for reading entire paragraphs and sets the tone like a clown doing the opening act of a theological forum. But. I’m a designer so I realize my sensibilities are shaped differently than others. My daughter and I read the first chapter and it contained numerous mistakes (a comma outside of a quotation mark, missing periods at the end of sentences, for example) and the content is simply bland. This book could be so much better!
