CUSTOMER REVIEWS:

Customer Rating:
Summary: Pass on this one
Comment: this book includes the Story of Sin Bad' and in it they cut off heads - far too graphic for my 8 year old. Who needs that in 3rd grade?

We did not find much of anything else that we really liked about the book - keep shopping.

Customer Rating:

Summary: What your Third Grader Needs to know
Comment: Love this book! It is an excellent guideline to help supplement my thrid grader at home!!

Customer Rating:
Summary: a good supplement
Comment: A must have supplement to go along with this text is the the book Damgerous book for boys. It is full of great ideas for extra curricular activies. I have an only child who is home schooled but does a lot of interacting with his friends. He needs more free,yet structured play. Dangerous book for boys offers this. I like how "What every Third Grader needs to know is formatted. It reminded me of the dnagerous book for boys.
So if you are a home schooler of a boy, or a girl look into both books.
