Product Reviews:
  Great and Interesting 
My children are 3 years and 20 months. This book has provided numerous, fun, learning opportunities for them. My redheaded 3 year old had a fun time when we discussed the section about Thomas Jefferson. She was thrilled to learn that he loved books (just as she does) and that he also had red hair just like her. The format of this book is great. It is divided into subjects that make it very easy for a parent to use with their children. Even though my children are young, they are still gleaning knowledge from this book when I use it in conjunction with "What Your Preschooler Needs To Know". I highly recommend this book.
  Excellent book ( mariam_johnson2002 )
I purchased this book so I can understand (in general) what my 4 year old needs to knows before Kindergarden. He currently goes to preschool but like most little kids he is hungry to learn more. I have been extremely happy with the book and its content. I agree with others that some of the stories are graphic and deal with death but it is my understanding that between year 4-6 kids are developing difference between good and evil. There are times that I pre read stories and edit them in mind prior to reading them to him. Overall excellent book and well worth every penny.
  What Your Kindergartener Needs to Know 
This is a book that I would recommend that any parent get. It helps me teach my child what is needed to know at each grade level. Delivered on time, with no problems.
  Good Investment 
Excellent resource for anyone who wants to make sure their child is getting a good educational foundation. Our child actually insists that we read from it daily. Very user friendly.
  Great Books! 
This series of books is incredible. We purchased the Fourth Grade, Second & Kindergarten and they are all fabulous. My husband and I even enjoy reading them. These books are a must for your kids. Highly recommend.
