Customer Reviews

Great service

I recieved my book within 1 week and it was not just in good condition but it was brand new. Highly recommend using this service again! A happy customer

Looks great for lower elementary teachers

I just received my copy and have done little more than skim through it. While it looks excellent, even as a preschool teacher with high expectations for my 4's and 5's, it appears to be mostly relevant for a minimum of kindergarten and higher. As I read the book, I will share further comments in my review here.
