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

Just what we needed and great price.
I've looked everywhere for these notebooks. The prices are crazy $5-6 a piece when compositions books are .50. These were prices just right and free shipping with no minimum purchase.

Hard to find item
This is exactly what I was looking for for my first-grader. I searched for a book like this at some other discount stores only to find it at dependable Staples for less than listed at other stores.

My kids couldn't wait to write stories!
My kids were so excited to see the new composition notebooks with illustrating space. They couldn't wait to begin writing stories and they're already completed a couple. Good quality construction and they seem pretty durable too.

Great product and price
Really needed one for my kindergartener and found them near me really over priced. Found it at staples for a good price. Had my mom pick up near her.
