Each mini-guide contains vocabulary words and exercises, discussion questions, a variety of activities, and a complete answer key. The purpose of a mini-guide is to learn more about a book than is possible from a quick read-through, but to refrain from overanalyzing it so your child never wants to see the book again (this has happened a couple of times in our home school). Mini-guides are ideal for use in home educational settings and in Christian schools.*
*Reproducible sheets that contain fill-in-the-blank activities and crossword puzzles are available (see the price list below). The sheets are designed to be photocopied for multiple students. Sample reproducible sheets will be able to be viewed at the end of the sample guide for The Gold Cadillac (the guide and reproducible sheets will be available in fall of 2007).
