Marisca Denby –
We just started this, but after reading just one chapter, my science loving son would’ve taken all the books and read through them on his own if I had let him. They will be good for both my son and daughter. I think they are well written and interesting. I appreciate that the Teacher Guide sheets are nicely perforated and we are allowed to copy them in our household.
