Review: An outstanding resource - I've been using these comprehension books for the past year. They really do get to the bottom of what the question is asking of the student. I really like the unique format of breaking down the questions into the various styles expected from the national curriculum. (Which is often not found in other books.) This has been particularly helpful for my child, and has helped to de-mystify questions and enable him to tackle the question in a structured way rather than 'a stab in the dark' way. This approach has also helped me to explain more clearly where to begin when the question is difficult, based on the question style. My child can now identify a question based on how it is worded, and knows how to find the answer.His skills have really improved. The texts are also varied and in digestable sizes (which may be too short for children working at greater depth.) Ollie the Owl is also on hand to help and give clues. I also love that the answers are online, and not in the back of the book, it avoids cheating, and makes it a lot easier to mark. I just refer to the downloadable file each time in a flash. All in all a really great resource. Review: 11+ - Really helpful. My kids have really improved since using the book. Great

Good little resource for teaching comprehension skills
I am using this with year 5 for homework and for a year 6 booster session. I find the materials child friendly and modern. Good range of texts. Answers online so no need to purchase a separate answer book.

WORKBOOK
Purchased these books in the past and they are very good, this one again did not disappoint. Happy with purchase, only thing that could make these books better and that is to have an answers page at the back so you can check if you work is correct or not.

Not the comprehension book out there, but good for extra practise.
This book is simpler than others that you may buy, but very child friendly. Gat as a homework book or extra activities to give children in the classroom.
