Summary: A great aid for at-home tutoring
Review: As a former high school teacher turned stay-at-home mom, I love this book. I purchased this to help my son practice his reading and question-answering skills. It's great. He is interested in many of the stories--koalas, alligators and crocodiles, and vampire bats--to name a few. There are at least 5 pages of vocabulary, phonics and short essay type answers required after each story. We generally complete one story each day, after his other homework is finished and corrected. He has even started asking to complete extra pages each day. What a change! I am going to order the next books in the series to keep our progress up over the summer.
