First of all, try to find out if it is not a mallsai.
"A Mallsai is a mass-produced young tree, grown for a quick result with a minimal amount of work, using very basic techniques. Such trees are often found in shopping malls (hence the name), gardens and chain stores, and many are "S" shaped."
Second, be aware that a bonsai needs care and patience, almost like a pet.
Third, if you live in the Northern Hemisphere then it is winter now, not the best time to initiate in this hobby. Could be frustrating, as some bonsai will drop all leaves and need to be outdoors, while tropicals need to be indoors (but they don't like it).
This website is a great place to research the basics of bonsai, and the menu bar is your first friend. Review the menu items above
