Seeking book recommendation: Lightroom CC (cloud, NOT Classic)

Looking for a good book for a novice to the new Lightroom CC (cloud version).
It seems that there are lots of books for the Lightroom Classic CC, but I can't find a single one on the new cloud version.
The ideal book covers Cloud for Mac as well as some treatment of Lightroom Mobile on a phone.

Not for me, by the way: I'm pretty experienced.
I've starting consolidating our family pictures in Lightroom Classic, and syncing key collections to the cloud.
I can give other family members Lightroom Cloud, and we can share edits, picks, ratings, keywords, comments etc. across multiple computers in a way that wasn't possible with Classic, since there was no way in Classic to share a catalog - not even on a shared drive (without risk of corruption from concurrent access).

Thanks.

Victoria Brampton (aka The Lightroom Queen) has a free download getting started book and has promised the complete book is very near to completion.

Going to be hard to get a complete version, as CC is not a finished product.

The trouble with buying any book on Lightroom is that there are so many updates to the program that the book becomes obsolete quickly. It may be in your best interests to look for free eBooks and or videos on the web.

Victoria Bampton provides a free ebook with her physical book and provides free updates to that ebook.

Is that the one I mentioned about 4 post back? You don't have to buy the physical book and she isn't yet done with the physical book for Lightroom CC (cloud).

To make it easy, I have attached it. However, she would prefer you get it from her website by providing your email address. She sends informative newsletters regularly.
