Look, nobody is buying this for the plot. It's a solid, dependable, and deeply unexciting workbook that does exactly what it says on the tin: teaches 7th-grade English.
It’s the ultimate 'supplemental' buy. If your kid is struggling with where to put a comma or how to structure a paragraph, this is $15 well spent. But if you're looking for something to ignite a love of reading or writing, keep moving. This is about the mechanics, not the soul.
It gets a lower overall WISE score not because it's bad—it's actually quite good at what it does—but because it lacks the 'imaginative' and 'entertaining' qualities that make media truly great. It's a tool, not a treat.
