Trip down "memory lane"

I am a home schooler, and the memory tips in this little book are invaluable teaching tools. Some I remembered, some I had forgotten...and some were new to me. All can serve anyone on "memory lane." It even helped me come up with memory keys on my own. Great book, and an easy read.

Remember this....

Little tricks have always helped me to remember facts and figures. This book just added a few new ones to my repertoire.
