Summary: The Best Way to Learn Vocabulary
Comment: The pneumonic devices in this book are a great way to learn new words, especially if you are reviewing for the SAT, PSAT or another standardized test. For example, the word "abstruse" means difficult to understand. There is a picture of two people, who the author calls the Abbs, who have just received a truce from a rival family. One of the Abbs is saying that he can't understand the truce. Whenever you hear the word in the future, you'll think of the Abbs and their truce and remember the definition! There, if you didn't already know that word, you just learned one! And one final comment... I took the PSAT this past fall and I had trouble with some of the harder vocabulary words. I was looking through the test for words I didn't know, and 3/4 if not more of the words I did not know for the test are in this book.

Summary: Finally, a successful way to LEARN vocabulary long-term!
Comment: As a teacher I am always looking for books that will help my students actually remember words not just learn them for the test. I heard about this book at the National Middle School Association conference this year and tried it with my students. To my surprise, my students REMEMBERED the words thanks to the stories provided by this book. You see, this book takes all the work out of teaching students words. I highly recommend this book to anyone wanting to improve their vocabulary and keep these words in their long-term memory. My students will attest to this success.

Summary: Practically Painless Learning
Comment: I found this slightly unorthodox way of learning vocabulary words to be entertaining and practically painless. My children (8th and 5th graders)and their Gifted and Talented Program teachers have been enthusiastic about using the book. I especially appreciate the author's humorous treatment of this compilation of words likely to be tested, and the fact that he has updated the book periodically to keep pace with changes in the SAT. I would recommend it for any student-in school or not- interested in expanding his or her vocabulary.
