"It could be adapted for learners at a foundational level of reading/writing. We purchased this for our use." – April 2012 Exemplary Literacy Materials Online Reviews.

"I've used some sections of the older version of the book for low level ELSA students. I had to simplify some, but it was a good resource for information. My school already has this version." – April 2012 Exemplary Literacy Materials Online Reviews.

"The readings in this book are written in plain language at a high-beginner level. It is an excellent resource for newcomers to Canada to learn about their new country and prepare for Canadian citizenship.
