This thoroughly revised second edition of Simon’s Saga for the SAT has been re-focused to reflect the latest version of the SAT test format.

It literally takes a “novel” approach to building students’ verbal skills. Simon, a very cool college dude, shows college-bound kids around campus. In the process, he helps them develop their vocabulary and overall verbal fluency, virtually guaranteeing them a great SAT Critical Reading score. Simon talks about both social and academic campus life.

As his story proceeds, new words for students to learn are printed in boldface type—the reader’s signal to check word definitions and correct usage.
