Bests & Worsts Reviews from Amazon

This is a great "big book" for review and skills reinforcement over the summer. As a curriculum specialist, I can see where improvement is needed, but I think the authors tried hard to create an inviting, comprehensive resource for building skills in reading, writing, critical thinking, math, science, and other language arts, with ethnically diverse characters and contemporary themes. My granddaughter, who is 6 and going into first grade, uses this book frequently and skillfully in guided lessons and independent work. School Zone staff, your publications deserve error-free excellence. There were too many errors in grammar, sentence structure, and punctuation. I am a technical writer, curriculum specialist, and professional editor. Another set of "eagle eyes" can help you avoid publishing substandard presentations.
