Quite a good collection!Aug 25, 2007
By Ada The short stories are entertaining, especially those modern versions of the well-known fairy tales. They are very funny. However, if you are an EFL teacher, you may want to know that the English used in the stories is quite colloquial and "American", which may or may not be a good thing to you.

Comprehension Cliffhangers for 4th GradersFeb 06, 2007
By Literacy Teacher This book is wonderful! My students love the stories. Comprehension Cliffhangers help students, not only with comprehension and vocabulary, but also their writing! I use it weekly. As a teacher, I find students have no problem creating, for example, an adventure story but they often have trouble writing an ending that leaves the reader satisfied. This book gives students the opportunity to be creative and think of their own ending but also compare and contrast their ending with that of the authors. If you are a teacher looking for a book of short stories that grab each student's attention this is the book. Check it out!

Kids love it!Feb 22, 2008
By D. Gerbino I teach 5th graders who usually hate to read and hate to write even more. However, they LOVE the stories in this book. Rather than use it as a read aloud guide, I let the kids read the story independently and then create their own endings to the cliffhanger. Then we have a writing contest -- they love it!

Great Stories!Jun 29, 2005
By D. Dixon I really like this book! I am tutoring students for the summer in reading comprehension and they love these stories. All of the stories are interesting to students and none end the way that the students predict. Great resource, looking for #2!

I am a speech therapist in a clinic and this has been wonderful for my older school age clients who are hard to engage.
