I bought this over 4 year ago now this is one of the book I often recommend to my students to get grip with English vocabulary, which is essential for writing and reading well. Divided in to more than 40 sets and each set takes a while to practice and remember.

Slightly perturbing when the book you are getting for your 9 year old is partly about a bit of English you've never heard of - Cloze certainly wasn't anything I ever did at school - but this is not too advanced for him and he's slowly working his way through the exercises which are varied and usually have good examples he can learn from.
