The target new vocabulary is listed and simple practice activities help students put their new words into practice.
Story pages include pre-reading questions to build previewing and predicting skills and post-reading questions and role-play activities to support critical thinking and to encourage students to use the new language they have learned.
Rich visual contexts recycle words from the unit. This structure is designed to address the needs of multilevel classrooms.

I am very articulate in English, but since it is my third language, there are sometimes random words like a c-clamp or a grasshopper or loafers that I just don't know. It surprises people because my English is so good and they don't hear the trace of an accent and I can write amazing philosophical essays. So there was just this inconsistency between my knowing what a term like "wreak havoc" means and my not knowing what a "grasshopper" is. Weird.
I couldn't find an appropriate book to fill in some of the gaps I have in my vocabulary. The ones I found were either too easy or too abstract. This one is concrete and complete. I probably know about 75% of the words in it, but that 25% I'm going to learn with this, that random 25% that gives me a headache sometimes when I'm trying to describe stuffs, will make me feel like a native speaker. This book is just too perfect.
I'll recommend it to everyone I know.
Best part is that you can make this book alone be the skeleton of your curriculum. With or without the workbooks and the lesson plans, the student is sure to have a very well rounded education. as a teacher, you can also expand your curriculum to get into more in-depth look on American Govt, Civics and History, through numerous lessons.
Its the first book I request the students buy as we start studies, as its a MUST HAVE!! All the books come in good condition and fast!
I highly recommend this tool to students and teachers!

What's special: the internet in general and the Wikipedia in particular have made almost all of the reference books in print terribly outdated and too superficial but not this one! This book is astonishingly relevant even if you have access to all kind of digital content! This book is definitely the investment worth making!!!
