From a teacher:

These Mini Page articles are really “a great fit” for my 3rd graders! We’ve saved so many articles over the years. Not only do they often hit the mark with curriculum topics throughout the year, they have great appeal for 8- and 9-year-olds. They are usually so appropriate for our kids’ reading levels, their interests, and they provide interesting information that our kids are able to understand. It is often difficult to find appropriate informational texts on topics that students want to learn about that are both comprehensible and hold their interest. The Mini Page is truly a periodical that kids learn from and enjoy reading – especially 3rd graders. You really know your audience!

Thanks again!

From a source at the White House:
I just got back in the country and had a ton of emails from Capitol Hill, journalists and association folks who loved this week’s Mini Page. It’s such a great service to help children learn these issues early on. It was great working with you
