Good book for reading practice.Bought this for my niece who is practicing her reading comprehension and preparing herself to enter grade 6. She was using this book during the summer break. She loves it. It is clear and has answer keys to help her to understand better of the exercises.

Incorrect info in bookI’m a middle school English teacher and I bought this to see what the exercises are like. I know Kumon as a math company and they should stick with that! I was incredibly surprised because it gives erroneous information about the definition of theme in literature- this is a big testing item on common core and VA SOLs. Don’t mix up your kid with this book- it won’t help!

I like Kumon seriesI always like Kumon series. Even though the recommended age may not be accurate as each child is different. Overall this book delivers what it intends.

too easyMy daughter is a 4th grader and I got this 6th grader book for her. She said it is too easy for her to do, she always complains that she is not good at reading comprehension although last year her teacher said her reading level is about middle school level… Would consider to try a higher level reading book next time.

Font issueI love the book and it’s outline, however, I really wish these learning to read books would be typed in basic font; the printing of alphabets that are taught in elementary. I do not understand why children books use a font such as Arial. My child is unable to process these fonts. So frustrating being in grade 5 and still reading kindergarten level.

Very good and interesting texts!I recommend every workbook and anything from Kumon. Their books are great, short and clear explanations that explain enough without wasting the child’s time, clear and accurate assessment of the student’s work through a point system in the books, plus there are answers and some solutions that help a lot. So far, I haven’t come across Kumon’s bad workbooks, although I’ve bought textbooks from almost every subject they offer. They are really grеat!!! Especially this book for grades 6-8 for text math problems, for Algebra and Geometry, which covers everything the children maybe missed and the children progress very quickly to a higher grade that they has not yet reached. I am very impressed ! I rarely have such opinions about any book! In the beginning it is difficult for the child with Kumon’s books and they spend more time even for one lesson, but later the child begins to understand more and more and becomes pleasant and begins to become more independent if they don’t stop perseverance in the practice of Kumon’s books.

Wide variety of topics; a bit too roteMy son has enjoyed working through this book, but he says he wishes it allowed for a bit more creativity and interpretation of the text. (The answers to most questions are supposed to be copied exactly from the text.)There are few images in the book, with most being fair simple line drawings or etched style. There is a little whale at the bottom of each section. He is the same whale as on the cover. My son doesn’t feel that the book is meant for younger kids as another reviewer mentioned their child feeling.Essentially, each section has a passage to read and then some questions to answer. The focus varies a bit throughout the book with vocabulary, main idea, interpreting text, fact & opinion, story elements, and reading comprehension being cover.This is a good book to use to supplement your child’s learning. It requires next to no prep on your part and it quite engaging.

Reading passages aren’t very engagingI bought this reading workbook for my homeschooled child. The reading passages are boring and not interesting and not engaging at all. As well as that, the questions are wordy. These two factors make my child lose interest whenever he works in this book. On the other hand, I like that the workbook has answers provided.

Good stories, but serious misprint problemsWhile the book does have interesting stories for kids to read, I noticed a few weeks after purchase that that 2 of the units were repeated exactly at the end of the book and that some parts of the stories were missing. Serious misprint problems which resulted in missing out on several worksheets!
