My Homeschooling 13 Year Old Uses it and Tested Out of High School !!!

I purchased this book at a used book store for some reason, can't remember why. When my 13 year old needed another English book for homeschooling, I pulled this one out and gave it to her. She is half way through the book, but just took her State test and passed out of English altogether! Its a great book; she really likes it.
