When my books arrived there was a hole in the side of the packaging. I am not sure what Amazon/Fed Ex managed to drive into my book box, but there sure was a hole. With a little trepidation, I began to unpack and grew to become deeply appreciative of the forethought that the MC team put into something as lowly as packaging. The puncture went through the outer box, through the inner box, and hit the final layer of protection. All this but the case and books were left untouched!

Mine arrived today as well (I'm very thankful for the packaging – gouges through the outer two levels of boxes but the goods were in mint condition). I took the granddaughter for a cardboard packaging kind of girl, but she was most intrigued by the white "wrapping paper". She thought she was opening a birthday present, a perspective shared by others in the room… Starting with Chapter one / page one and letting the authors just tell their story...

So I have a delivery date scheduled for my copy on Tuesday (books are within 90 mi) – check I have my Index printed off and ready for use – check I have my book opening party scheduled with family and 1 year-old granddaughter (someone has to play with all that cook packaging) – check Notebook and pens ready to go (Anna’s picture was an inspiration) – check Study area close to kitchen to install the books for the foreseeable future – check Ready to go to school…

What is the rough ETA for the printable full index (as noted up-thread), is it weeks or months (I hope for the former but fully understand if it is the latter). Looking forward to getting my copy next Tuesday (Mar 10th US Amazon order for those that are keeping track)...

My copy is expected to arrive next Tuesday... Eau Claire WI - Amateur --Scott
