Page 122 Your Turn 2: Look for quotations in your student s paper that reflect the following answers. Audience: The reviewer states that younger readers will benefit from the book.

Page 128 Your Turn 5: To help your student organize his questions and answers and to help you evaluate them, suggest that he write his set of questions on note cards, one question per card.
