Billed as a ‘must-have for every first-time homeowner or novice DIYer put off by the market’s large DIY manuals’, 'DIY Quick Fix' tackles the most common home improvement problems. According to a reviewer on Amazon, the book, which comes from DK, a publisher know for its high-quality photographic illustrations, includes topics such as:

patching drywall

removing a cracked piece of tile in the shower or on the floor
fixing a leaky copper pipe
fixing sticky or creaky doors
replacing a broken wall outlet
repairing a piece of broken masonry

The reviewer mentions that the tools needed to complete the tasks are ‘simple to use’. The spiral-bound book is available through Amazon for 15 bucks, and it’s eligible for free super saver shipping too.
