Good practice for entrance tests. Would recommend. Child finds them very easy after doing these practice books.

This comprehension workbook is great for at home. The questions are clear and gives a variety of text-types as examples. I would say that some of the fiction texts aren’t as easy to answer unless you know the full story already because it doesn’t explain what is going on in the book prior to the excerpt that you read for questioning i.e. the Peter Pan excerpt starts mid-conversation when he has arrived at the Darling’s and is trying to encourage the children to go with him to Neverland. The questions ask the reader about how he attempts to ‘lure them’ to Neverland but the excerpt doesn’t include the context for why Peter is at the house, making it confusing for the reader and necessary for a helper to explain the context.All in all, you can’t fault CGP workbooks, but this is something I’d bare in mind.
