Review title: It is what it says it is Product review: This is a good workbook for introducing sentence-combining into a high school English class. The first half of the book uses sentence combining to introduce/review the writing process, offering students "invitations" to write based on the exercises. The exercises themselves are often topical, and the writing invitations generally ask students to write about themselves and their experiences. The second half of the book uses sentence combining to review grammar, including the parts of speech, usage, clauses and phrases, and punctuation.My only criticism of the Toolbox is that it is perhaps too ambitious. By trying to be all things, I felt it does not provide enough depth, especially about the writing process (compared to, say, Writers Inc). Of course, if you wish to use it as a supplement to your classroom instruction, it is more than sufficient.

Ans:increase

Review title: Disappointing Product review: I have to agree with some other reviewers of this book. Gigi is pretty self-absorbed. She exhibits behavior patterns I do not want my daughter to possess. In a society that puts so much value on "self" I do not think it is wise to encourage it in a Christian children's book.

Review title: Disappointing Product review: This book appeared to have what would be an somewhat interesting plot. There was some suspense and then it just kept dragging on and on. It then got just plain weird and not entertaining at all. Here's one for the donation pile.

Review title: great title, great new look, not-so-great music Product review: the music on this CD was overrated and the only good songs were musicology which sounds like it's full of 80's synthesizers anyways; and dear mr man which was hot when he performed it on BET. The dude is getting fine like wine with time, but I haven't enjoyed his music since 1992. Sorry purple one.
