+The current release of Sophie is missing much of the functionality that will be in the final release version of Sophie, but it can still do many things. This tutorial will walk you through starting Sophie and making a simple book. 
 
 To get started with Sophie, you need to download it from the [wiki:Download download page]. You'll end up with a .zip file; you'll need to unzip that.
