Tooth and Nail: A Novel Approach to the New SAT

Tooth and Nail: A Novel Approach to the New SAT
Tooth and Nail: A Novel Approach to the New SAT

SAT vocabulary buildup through engaging mystery.

If the thought of studying for the SAT makes you yawn, "Tooth and Nail" could flip that script. Imagine learning the lexicon you need not from a list, but as you turn the pages of a gripping mystery. You'll absorb the words as clues and characters intertwine, making preparation not just productive, but surprisingly enjoyable as well.

Note: While we do our best to ensure the accuracy of cover images, ISBNs may at times be reused for different editions of the same title which may hence appear as a different cover.
