Customer Reviews

Well worth it!

great quality, super fast, highly recommend!

A great first stop

I started using Maxnotes as a beginning teacher, a few years back, so that I could catch up on some novels that I had never read in college. I was under the gun and had to provide lesson plans in 3 days on 5 novels I didn't know. Maxnotes saved me.Now, some time later, I find myself referring back to those books and buying more of them. Am I still under the gun? No. These books, unlike like those charming ones from my college days, are well organized, insightful, and show a clear understanding of literary device.I have found them so useful that I recommend them to teachers (both new and experienced). They provide perspectives I had never thought of, helpful questions, and practice essays I find myself using again and again.This series is simply the most helpful and concise tool I have ever found. I have even taken to recommending this book to my students. I know bad teacher. However, using this text breakdown and summary along with side by side texts my students have improved their short and long term understanding of literature by remarkable amounts.Dollar for dollar you can not go wrong with any of these books.

The Best

I thought that this was one of the most intreging book.. Scout, Jem and Dill find out that life isn't always as it seems. They sit and list to the case and figure out that every one is accusing Robinson wrongly... i would have to say that this book is one of my all time favorites. And will never go out of style..

amazing, fab...

This book was amazing. The metaphores were outstanding, and the characters breathtaking. Lee was able to capsure a child's scarace ability to judge as well as her inability to understand the need others feel to judge. It depicts the struggles of children who are more educated than their peers, in addition to the possibility of their elders being below them in some events, and yet they remain real. I would certainly suggest this novel to anyone looking for a good book to read by the fire on a rainy night. It truly makes one think.

it was really helpful in researching the book

If you are ever short in time for a book report of anything, got these notes. They were SO helpful! Thank you!
