There is much to be said for the modern self-publishing apparatus, but it also makes it mighty easy to offer materials of dubious value. As such, I’ve decided that even in my completism, I needn’t purchase absolutely every Peanuts-related book that someone drops on the public via use of self-publishing tools.

The latest book to get the “nah, I’m gonna skip that” treatment is The Key Leadership Lessons from The Wizard of Oz and It’s the Great Pumpkin, Charlie Brown, a 33 page tome for $14. Alas, Amazon’s preview shows only one interior page, and that’s the title page, so I cannot see what size text is used to fill out those 6″ x 9″ pages. The title page, like the front cover, indicates that whoever put this together does not know how to wield italics. (The back cover text, which is all about author Mostafa Sayyadi and not at all about credited co-author Mike Provitera, also lets me know this was not well proof-read, if at all.)

If you want one, there you go!
