Lecka Posted December 9, 2018 Share Posted December 9, 2018 I just saw this is coming out. I think the samples look great!!!!!!! I’m not sure what to do, I’m honestly thinking about rebuying the story books. Color is much more appealing to my youngest son! 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Meadowlark Posted December 10, 2018 Share Posted December 10, 2018 I hear you. I own all 4 levels of AAR and I'm super bummed that I will forever know that they *could* be in color, and we have black and white. But oh well. I'm on level 2 with kid #5/6 so not much to go. I guess it never bothered anyone else. But, for those on the fence or who are looking for a reading program, this has got to be the most beautiful, quality program I've ever seen-now that it's in color. Just wow. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MerryAtHope Posted December 11, 2018 Share Posted December 11, 2018 Here's a link with some pictures. My kids always really wanted color too! And there is a HUGE giveaway - all 4 levels plus an Amazon gift card! 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Melissa in Australia Posted December 11, 2018 Share Posted December 11, 2018 I am sad. the beginning of the year I purchased the whole set of both AAR and AAS. every. single. level. I guess we will be sticking the black and white $15 extra US is over $20 Aus that is a big rise in cost. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jess4879 Posted December 11, 2018 Share Posted December 11, 2018 It never actually bothered me that it was black and white, but the color samples look soooo pretty! Last kiddo is working through the program now and isn't bothered by the b&w, so we definitely won't be buying again. Not so crazy about the price increase either, but at least they are beautifully bound books for the $$. I have a huge pet peeve with companies that charge a premium (Artistic Pursuits, for example) and then use something cheap like comb binding. Seriously, this bugs me. And has nothing to do with AAR and the new color editions. Carry on. LOL 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RootAnn Posted December 14, 2018 Share Posted December 14, 2018 I own some of the AAR reading books, but my youngest is beyond the age of using them. I was out to dinner last night with a group of homeschool moms & we talked about AAR in color. One of the moms looked at me & said, "Why do you even know this? Your kids can all read!" "Hello, my name is RootAnn. I'm a curriculum research junkie." 3 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Posted December 21, 2018 Share Posted December 21, 2018 I’d love to get the complete set for my tutoring kids. It’s so nice when I have the materials on hand that they use af home 🙂 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
