This spiral-bound book is easy to use and very well organized. Many of the activities would be appropriate for pre-school or 1st grade students as well as kindergarten. Even homeschool parents could benefit from much of this curriculum.

This was a truly wonderful fantasy that drew me on and on in spite of a few boring fight scenes. It is great fun to follow all the strands of myth and legend woven into a realistic story.

When you first pick up the book, you think this is going to be a "normal" pre-teen novel about a boy who has problems in school and in life. Then things begin to happen that make you doubt what you are reading. Once you get over the initial shock and refocus your thinking, you have found yourself riding headlong into a terrific adventure with characters that make you wish you were there with them, so you could have them as friends. By the time I finished this story, I was so happy to know that there were more to come and that I wouldn't have to abandon this new world forever! A great read, especially for those boys who don't particularly like to read books, and find Harry Potter a little overwhelming. Percy has just enough attitude to appeal to that crowd, but is still so obviously the "good guy" that they can't help but root for him and his friends.
