Key Points

1. THE SUCCESSFUL SUMMER BRAIN QUEST SERIES NOW GETS KIDS READY FOR KINDERGARTEN: Summer Brain Quest has been warmly welcomed in the marketplace, with more than 500,000 copies in print at publication in Spring 2017 and placement in a wide range of accounts. The top-selling Summer Brain Quest title to date has been the youngest (Between K & 1st Grade); there's particularly strong demand for school readiness for the youngest ages, so now the series expands to cover the summer between Preschool and Kindergarten.

2. GETTING READY FOR SCHOOL FEELS LIKE PLAY! Summer Brain Quest is structured like a game; each book includes a pull-out map that guides kids on a learning quest. They fill in their route on the map by earning stickers for completing workbook pages as well as pursuing outdoor activities. The map offers a choice of routes, allowing kids to customize their learning path with the exercises they like best. Every page is packed with fun.

3. THE POWER OF BRAIN QUEST - VETTED BY TEACHERS, TRUSTED BY PARENTS, LOVED BY KIDS: Brain Quest is America's bestselling educational series with over 44 million copies in print -- and growing workbook sales every year. Each Summer Brain Quest workbook is carefully vetted by the Brain Quest Advisory Board and aligned to the Common Core State Standards, Next Generation Science Standards, and state social studies standards. Summer Brain Quest has been welcomed by parents (one blogger titled her review "On how I finally stopped hating workbooks") and loved by kids (one customer wrote "This was the only workbook my child liked!") and many say that their children loved the map and stickers.
