She used to go ballistic when she had to mentally form a three-dimensional object from a two-dimensional image. After doing the Building Thinking Skills Book 1, she says it's a breeze. Her nonverbal scores used to be low. Now they're higher than her verbal, which were already high. Her creativity and problem solving have also blossomed since she started using these materials.

My whole family loved this book. I had as much fun as my 5-year-old. It was easy enough for my youngest while still challenging my oldest(8). I love these books and will be purchasing the whole set.

This book is wonderful! As every adult knows, analyzing a situation can be critical for success. This book, gently coaches young children not at all on what to think, but HOW to think. If you know you have over compensated with your child/children buy this book so they can learn to think and act on their own.

If you value the power of the mind, then this book is many many times more valuable than a DVD player or iPod or game console. Either indoors or even for keeping the kids occupied in a car on trips.

This amongst other books helped my daughter get into the GT program. Very good preparatory material.

This is an excellent series of books that are great for children and adults. My newly 4 year old daughter is able to do many of the problems and enjoys the focus and accomplishment of doing them.

Cover whole range of subjects so that you know your child strong and weak subjects.
Recommended.

Sylvan Learning Center uses it, that should be enough of a testimony right there!

It would have been useful to say that the item comes from a smoking house.
We are allergic to smoke, and we can smell it from the book when we opened the package.
Otherwise, the book is good.
Thanks.
