The entire Editor in Chief series is excellent. Often, even students who don't like studying grammar enjoy the EIC editing challenges. They are short and the number of errors in a passage is noted in advance, so that students know when to stop or to keep searching. I would recommend this series for either homeschooled or in-school students to complement any other curriculum. It is indeed one of the Critical Thinking Company's best publications.
