Description
I saw you fixed the molecule [README](https://github.com/geerlingguy/ansible-for-devops/blob/master/molecule/README.md). I saw you fixed the [CI job](https://github.com/geerlingguy/ansible-for-devops/issues/545). I even see the automated CI job recipe later in the book installing it.
But I still see in the latest edition that the initial instructions for installing molecule is missing the plugin.
You have:
> Molecule is easy to install:
> ```bash
> pip3 install molecule
> ```
You proceed to create the `molecule.yml` file with the docker driver and call `molecule test`. In between, there are no steps to install the `molecule-plugins[docker]` package.
Got me puzzled for the weird message that molecule gives when it is not installed.

Research direction
Locate the book section with the initial “Molecule is easy to install” instructions, using molecule/README.md and the later automated CI recipe as context. Add the molecule-plugins[docker] installation step before creating molecule.yml, then verify the documented molecule test flow is complete.
