Hi Cindy,

I don't have that ISBN number on this copy though it has 2 and both are
listed as hard covers. You could proof from any copy though because my
issue had been the dialog later on. It became hard to discern when one
person speaking turned into the other person speaking because it was all
together. The page numbers are there at the end of the big paragraph and
the page breaks are all there.
