I think it's pretty short - in HB it measures 5" x 6" and its contents seem to be made up of a lot of quotes that the author's dad used to say.

Seems a kind of odd choice for an audiobook, actually.

Or possibly, it reflects the additional costs of capturing the text for the eBook from the audio book via voice recognition software and subsequent proof-reading, etc . . .
