This review is from: Rex 2 (Time Soldiers Series, Book 2) (Time Soldiers Series, Bk. #2) (Hardcover)

I got this in a set and my class really enjoyed it. My staff and I had a great time recognizing local locations and personalities. Even the children recognized some of them. they enjoyed the exciting story and have asked for it over and over again. I look forward to more from these exciting writers and so do my children.

This review is from: Rex II (Hardcover)

My boys love this book and the first Rex book. They are waiting for the rest of the books. They have read the two they have many times over and can't wait to get more. I have been very dissapointed that I can't find the rest of the series for them. I hope they appear soon. What a great way for kids to learn and to get them reading.

My son enjoyed this book. However, the first book seemed like it was actually a higher reading level and definitely longer. I was a bit disappointed to find that there were no chapters. Since it is a continuation of the first book, definitely worth purchasing to finish the story. However, you probably won't fill many reading requirements with the book.
