“Less is more” — unlike other publishers, we do not burden teachers with supplement upon supplement. Indeed, we don’t need to: our books do most of the work, by drawing students into the exciting story of history. Our teacher’s manuals and workbooks only help complete the work the textbooks have begun.
Grade range: 5–9
