(More customer reviews)This book is great at introducing reading and vocabulary in an engaging way and making it easy for students to keep reading. The focus is on learning words in context first and then getting definitions, with plenty of reinforcement and "recycling" of words in later chapters. There are tons of activties for each chapter, so it works with lots of teaaching styles (by the book vs. more open-resource). This book was so good that the community college where I teach adopted the rest of the series for our ESL reading program. Definitely worth the money!
