Summary: We Really Apppreciated this Book. And so will You.
Comment: This is an outstanding story book that's fun to read and excellent at educating young children. We read something from this book almost every evening. Both my seven-year old and four-year old love something from this book.
This book gives a good selection of classic children's stories, fun poems, singable songs, wise fables, and other works that are fun to read. It also gives great introductions to American history, world history, science, art and much more. What you see in this book is what your child should be learning at an ideal school.
Since no school is perfect and can cover everything, use this book as a great way of ensuring that your chilren receive an outstanding education.
This book tells you what you need to teach your first grader, and it's good reading. Next year we will buy the volumes for second grade and kindergarten.
It's interesting that one review made a claim that this book is a little too liberal. The fact is that the editor has been closely associated with forger Education Secretary William Bennett, a social conservative. In fact, the information in this book is neither liberal nor conservative. It's just excellent and enjoyable education for you kids, based on solid empirical research...

Summary: This series is a MUST HAVE!
Comment: You just can't beat this book. Not only does it tell you what your child should be learning, it's right there for you. This isn't just a list of topics - it has the actual stories, biographies, math games, etc. right there for you. One of my favorite parts is the literature section. It has the basic stories, poems, fables, and sayings every well-rounded child should now. And the science and history sections have great introductions/overviews of topice - great for unit studies. We use this book for homeschooling, and every homeschooler should have it. Note: to help you buy the right grade - for most books, you often have to buy a grade level higher for a homeschooled child, but the grade levels of these books are very accurate.

Summary: Thank you E.D. Hirsch!
Comment: I would like to thank E.D. Hirsch for writting such a wonderful guide to teaching my child. I am the parent of a 14 year old Mongoloid who is only able to function at a 1'st grade level. Everytime I show him the pictures and teach him about the basics of mathematics, my Mongoloid drools and smiles. Before this book, James(my mongoloid child) wasn't able to speak. However, now he can say three words, "Daddy" "yes" and "no", and spell all three! This book is great!
