Customer Reviews

Love this book! But...

This is a great book. It has an information sheet about each state with interesting facts, then it has a couple pages of games related to the facts. This is one of the neatest, most useful state-study books I've come across yet. My only gripe? Well, most states have a letter game where you answer questions about the state using some sort of letter code corresponding with numbers...only problem is, they didn't bother to include the code! So I've had to waste a lot of time cracking the code myself and typing it up so that my students can do the worksheets. With the price I paid for the book, I shouldn't have to do that! (My teacher's aide quipped that I must have forgotten to purchase the secret decoder ring that this book obviously requires.) Other than that, this is a great book and I highly recommend it for a simple but thorough and informative study of our great country. PS I'm intrigued by the idea of sending a stuffed animal all across the country...how does that work? Please let me know!! It sounds fun! LisaM5305@aol.com

great resource for homeschoolers

We are using this book to study the 50 states in our homeschool. The activities are lots of fun. My son is in the third grade. Along with this study we have stuffed animal that is visiting each state by mail and we learn about the state he is in at the time. We are having so much fun with this project!
