Praise for the book:"Got this for my 9 yr old son as a gift. He finished it in one day...couldn't put it down he told me. This is a boy who has comprehension issues and I'm finding it's due to the material. If he doesn't enjoy it he glosses over the words and doesn't remember a thing. This book he was able to answer all kinds of questions and prompted more research for questions he had. Love it! Will be ordering him more." 5 Stars, Barefoot
