Maniac Magee Literature Guide March 8, 2011
Reviewer: Kristina Marshall from Alta Loma, CA United States  
I love the Maniac Magee lit. guide!  I love that the standards are embeded so that I don't have to incorporate those in on my own as I do with some novel guides from other companies.  I like that the questions and vocabulary words are higher level.  I like that it is taking a simpler book and giving it more depth.  I would absolutely purchase other lit. guides for other class novels that I use!
