The Wild Side, a perennial favorite among struggling readers, mesmerizes with astonishing tales of true-life adventures.

Comprehension questions reinforce literal understanding, while critical thinking questions encourage students to consider the author's purpose, make inferences, identify cause and effect, and make predictions. With all this excitement, students won't realize how well designed this series is for reinforcing state reading standards.

5.0 out of 5 stars Great Reading For Middle Schoolers!, Sep 12 2009

By S. Priest "English MST" - Published on Amazon.com

This review is from: The Wild Side: Extreme Sports (Paperback)

I purchased this book and several others like it to help entice my middle schoolers to read more "information/non-fictional text" and to enjoy doing so. The stories are informational, well written, and exciting for non-readers. By reading and answering all the questions the readers have improved their overall literacy and I am very pleased with the results.
