Customers say
Customers find the book a good introduction to stamp collecting for young children. They find it a nice gift for young kids and consider it a must-have for any stamp collection. However, some customers feel the black and white printing is boring and lacks color. Opinions differ on the stamp collection aspect, with some finding it useful for older stamps and a place to store extra stamps, while others say it’s only for older stamps and doesn’t have a place to store new ones as they come out.
