Entrepreneurship for 8-year olds! This has barely any content, but tries to ride on the Lean Startup and Osterwalder's Business Model Generation wave. And they fail miserably.

It is seldom you see crap like this sold, but it happens (look at me, I bought it :-() Avoid it as it doesn't contain anything you can't find after 10 minutes of thinking and 2 minutes of Google searching…
