My notebooks came damage. The notebooks are bended and ripped. And they're very expensive.

perfrect notebook for beginning writer
This notebook has manuscript lines with red on the bottom to help beginning writers pay closer attention to the lines as they form their letters. It has a nice place for the writer to draw a picture.

Bought for my TKer
Daughter having trouble writing in a straight line. Thought this would help. Great since it was shipped free but a little pricier than I hoped. Would love to get on sale next time.

I purchased this item and had it shipped to my granddaughters in another state. My daughter was very pleased as it was needed for school and I ordered extras so they will have them for trips.

primary composition notebook
A great book for the primary grades for story writing. Wish the matching special ruled lines for grade 1-2 was available. I am no longer able to purchase it at Staples.
