Customer Reviews

Great for beginners, young and old!

I bought this for my 8 yr old, (who is admittedly a fantastic reader, well above her grade level, so you'll have to be the judge of your child's ability) she loves it! It is well organized and the language is simple without talking down to the kids, so an adult just beginning can learn a lot from this book, too. It's recommended for grades 4 and up, but my daughter is grade 2 and does fine with it.

beautiful & fun

I love this book and so does my daughter! There are so many wonderful ideas and everything is so simple to do. We're learning together, I highly recommend this book.
