I'm so impressed with this packet. I'm using it as a reading guide and it really gets my kids to think. Well worth the money. Thank you!

These questions will lead literature circles quite well.

Thank you... I had great success in facilitating small group book talks around these questions. The students really enjoy digging into the topics covered by the questions, which in turn spark meaningful student-generated conversations.

I agree, I was under the assumption that it was complete. I did not receive any answers from the second section on. I would say it is about 80% incomplete.

Wow... 80% in-complete? I don't know about all that... the product description is clear and addresses this... no surprises... I was upfront and honest and will be posting the answer key as it is written this year

This product was very nice, but needs to be completed. It begins with answers for the first two sections but does not give answers for the rest.
Thanks,
Customer

The answer key will be made available free of charge Summer 2009 after my students and I have had a chance to write, edit, and test out the answers
