Say adios to the mind-numbing word lists found in most SAT prep guides: teens will lose themselves in the fast-paced drama of The Marino Mission and emerge with a superior vocabulary.
Each year, more than 2 million students take the SAT I. Now, instead of poring over word lists, they’ll encounter vocabulary in the context of a memorable novel–a recipe for much better word retention on test day. One thousand of the most commonly tested vocabulary words are sprinkled through this action-packed story, which features an exotic Latin American locale, a teenage girl and boy, a tale of intrigue surrounding a missing baby dolphin–and a brief definition of each vocabulary word, easily accessible at the bottom of the page on which each word appears. As an added test-prep bonus, the book includes vocabulary exercises at the back to help students master the words presented in the text.
