This is unlike most purely literary study guides which bring everything in toward a focus on the novel itself. These use literature as a springboard for investigation, exploration, research, creativity and expression the focus moves outward from the book. Available at seven levels (ages 7-9, 8-10, 9-11, 10-12, 11-13, 12-14, and high school), they correspond to concept units in the Moving Beyond the Page curriculum. However, they are more than this, bordering on unit studies because of their strong social studies, science, critical thinking, and art/design components. The set of all 12 literature units at each level are intended as a complete language arts curriculum teaching vocabulary, grammar, writing, spelling, story elements, and figurative language in the context of popular children's books.
