    I don't give negatives; However, description was not correct; No price guide was included in this book.As you will see in book pic shown; title states price guide included, no price guide inside. Communication poor, description, no communication price guide missing from this book. Shipping time was weeks before it was even shipped. Blamed the shipping on warehouse. You own & operate a business; your warehouse is not up to standards you change who you do business with. It's your responsibility.

  • EV3 Disovery Book

    If you want to get the most out of your investment on the EV3, this book is perhaps the best thing to have for your future engineer/scientist child. The book is worth a lot of money, but with eBay, you can get it at a very low price. The book we got was basically brand new.

  • Great manual for EV3

    Unfortunately my child never got to use his EV3 set or the book I purchased for him, but I purchased it because it was the book their club used as a reference and they all seemed to find very useful. Nice to have a thorough reference at hand for a robot with so many options; it makes the challenges of problem solving simpler.
