Go West Young Crab! (Chester the Crab's Comics with Content Series)

As a teacher, I LOVE having these comics in the classroom as a resource. The kids want to read them because they are comics, and they "accidentally" end up learning a whole lot of history along the way. The fifth graders I have now seem to really enjoy the little crab characterLove the teaching resources that accompany each comic. Love that difficult words are explained. Love having visual representations to make history come alive for kids.In summary: love, love love!

Chester Comix is a must read for the entire family. I gave this issue to my grandchildren (8 and 10) and they couldn’t put it down. It is a very creative way to bring the old west to life. They keep talking about how much fun it was to read and want other books. The quality of the publication definitely makes it a keeper for their bookshelf to read over and over. A must for classroom use also.

I use these in home schooling and they are excellent. The author has worksheets and additional material on the website as well. Highly recommended.

Purchased for classroom use. These have made an excellent and popular resourcefor students whose comprehension and reading abilities are below grade level.Relevant historical information presented in a visual format.

Very entertaining and educational!

This is a great book!

My 10 and a half year old daughter looked like she hit the jackpot when we gave her this comic- excellent substance and the artistic skill is impressive to say the least. Chester Comix are a fantastic learning tool for kids....but I have to say- I have RE learned a few things myself- and enjoyed it!

These comics are enjoyed by our entire family. Our 10 year old son can't seem to put them down as the illustrations and content are clever and entertaining. We love how Bently Boyd brings history to life in a fun, creative and easy reading style. After my son is finished reading he can't wait to share what he read with the entire family. We have acquired the entire set of Chester Comix with Content Series and love them all. These make a GREAT gift for anyone of any age or even for teachers as they are an awesome learning tool. A gift that keeps giving. This is a definate must have for the entire family. ENJOY!
