I really like this series of easy readers a lot. There is a nice variety of well-known, important books to choose from and the texts are retold pretty well. I do wish that the vocabulary explanations were a bit more helpful--they are often not any easier to understand than the glossed word itself. I'm also not crazy about most of the exercises included in the text, although there are always a few that are helpful. Mostly I'm just happy to have a text that even beginning students can work with and this series does a great job of providing books for all levels.
