Excellent book. Lessons clearly laid out and easy to understand. Great for beginner. Videos are great but I agree, would be better if they corresponded with the actual files used in the lessons. However, I would not hesitate to recommend this book. Am looking for more videos by Fred Garantabee; hopefully there are some more out there.

I like the book. The writer has done an excellent job explaining the Flash CS3 concepts. The corresponding videos for each new concept helped enhance the understanding. I will for sure look for other books by the same author on Adobe products, specially CS3 Dreamweaver and CS3 Fireworks.
