All of these materials are "just-right" or "perfect-fit" books for each of my students: they will offer enough of a challenge without presenting too much struggle and thereby hampering desire to continue.

Most crucially, the materials in this collection are contemporary and will captivate and entertain my students while also nurturing their curiosity.
