My daughter, when she first opened the book was skeptical and said she didn't want to do it. Then she sat down and started answering the problems with ease and ended up really enjoying her math. She doesn't care to do math, but now it is an enjoyable subject for her. Thank you.

I am giving this book a 4, not 5, only because we are only about 1/4 done, so I am not sure how it will end up going for us till we are done. But let me say this, I have tried Abeka, Saxon and a couple of other algebra books for my home schooled, high school junior son, and this book so far, is BY FAR BETTER for him than any of those others. There has been no frustration for either one of us with this book so far. I do the lessons also, to be able to help if needed, and let me say, when I took algebra in high school in the 70's I never understood how to do it, nor really cared to work hard to understand it.. I am able to do it with this book - easily! I say if you have a student, who like my son, struggles with higher math, then try this book and see if it also works for you.
