Review: Lacking in schools - This book (and book series in general) has a lot to do with making inferences based on common knowledge that the particular age group knows. I didn't realize it until I started home schooling, but my son had absolutely no understanding of cause and effect. It simply wasn't taught in school. We started out at the 2nd grade level and worked him up to 4th grade. Now he often looks at something and on his own simply says "oh I'm sure this happened because of such n such", and he's usually pretty dead on. This definitely helps kids/students piece together what they're looking at and how it came to be which also helps with accountability for themselves and how they affect a situation. I have bought three years worth of these books because even at the second grade level, my son advanced so much, and I will buy again each grade as needed. Highly recommend. Review: this is a great book. - Hi, This is a great book for your kids to learn about cause and effect. I have bought all of them 1-5 great books
