Pay only $6 for this novel study when you purchase it as part a Build Your Own Trifold Novel Study Bundle!
But wait...
If you are looking for the traditional novel study with the 10 daily comprehension questions, this bundle is not for you!
These aren't one-size-fits all comprehension questions. Instead, your readers will be asked to think deeper and apply their understanding of the text. They'll have the opportunity to formulate their own opinions and communicate their thinking in a way that even hesitant readers LOVE!
