best for school setting

I was hoping to use this for nephews and nieces, but I don't think it would attract them--it's kind of dry and (sorry to the illustrator) some of the illustrations are odd and unnatural. I didn't find the activities original or particularly interesting, with the exception of two of them, and even though the reading level may be age 7-10, I think the interest and difficulty level of the activities is age 7 or 8. The dot-to-dots, for example are basically just an outline. But still, if you're looking for something like this--word finds based on the Anima Christi, and word scrambles about the Upper Room story--I'm sure you'd be satisfied with it. It is noted in the book that the scripture quotations are from the NEW REVISED STANDARD VERSION BIBLE (1989).
