Oh, well, caveat emptor. I don't think this quite reaches scam level. Buy a used paper copy for a penny plus shipping.

It's printed with a large font, large line height, and large margins. Sure it's written for kids, but it is not a novel. The word count prevents it from being a novel. A novella is 17,500-40,000 words and this si not even close to 40,000 words. Also, the price is atrocious. $9.99 for a novella is stealing.
