Usborne and Learning Styles: VISUAL LEARNER will love the fantastic illustrations along with concise text. AUDITORY LEARNERS can listen to text discussion. There are also some foreign language tape packs and videos. KINESTHETIC LEARNERS will benefit from the many hands-on activities which reinforce concepts. The Learning Wrap-Ups are also an excellent hands-on tool for learning key facts.
