Not much of a book - a basic pamphlet in 5 languages is included, but the attraction here is the whimsical artwork. And it is delightful. All of the cards are rendered as Da Vinci paintings or details thereof, for example, the High Priestess card is the Mona Lisa in a pope hat! My only ding is the size - when they say "mini" they mean it - each card is barely longer than my thumb. At my age it almost requires a magnifying glass, but get it out - the art is worth it! ( )
