Now I have an A+. I am very happy I did this app." "These apps are awesome! Our boys absolutely love these. We have done 3rd, 4th & 5th grade comprehension. They love the fun aspect of getting the questions right, and think of these more as games than the learning apps they are." Many of our best features were based on YOUR feedback!
