Notebook 4 is very fragile. The Aṅguttara-nikāya is a Buddhist scripture, the fourth of the five nikāyas ('collections') in the Sutta Piṭaka. This nikāya consists of several thousand suttas ascribed to the Buddha and his chief disciples, which are arranged in eleven books, according to the number of dhamma items referenced in them. Notebooks 4 and 5 includes a short vocabulary. Approx. 30.5cmX20cm.
