The Ultimate Micro-RPG Book edited by James D’Amato - HIGH

The Ultimate Micro-RPG Book edited by James D’Amato
. 102 pages. NON-FICTION. Simon and Schuster, 2020. $17 (paperback). 9781507212868 

BUYING ADVISORY: MS, HS – ADVISABLE 

AUDIENCE APPEAL: HIGH 

Whether as a great longer activity for an afterschool group. Or just a handy resource for library checkout, I would invest in this interesting book. The only flaw for libraries is that it does include some characters sheets and blank graph paper in the back, which should probably be removed before circulation. I would contact the publisher about getting permission to separate the pages and laminate them for individual use! If you already have a group at your school who are big fans of table-top role playing games, they should be very excited to see this. I, on the other hand, would need those same kids to teach me how to play any of the games. Most of few take at least an hour, though a couple can possibly be finished in about 30 minutes.
