Default whats the easiest poker strategy book to understand

I just got Sklansky's Holdem Poker for Advanced Players, and it's really confusing, and hard to understand.

can you people recommend me some books that are easy on the eyes, and even easier to read and understand???

You want deep theory, but you can't understand HPFAP? I'm recomending Small Stakes Holdem. A great book for anyone.

I know: I have it. Anyways, SSH is your best bet. Don't let the name fool you; it's a great book.

Ummmm.... SSH is not a beginners book, adn if you can't follow HPFAP, then don't bother SSH or ToP, go try Play poker like the pros, written for and by kindergarteners.....

Its not a bad book, similar, but much better than the SS's. Covers all types of poker, and as beginner through advanced chapters... Its a decent catch all book.
