"Brian Leaf has taken the pain out of studying for standardized tests. He shows students how to use Twilight to increase their word power. Who would have thought that learning vocabulary could be so much fun?"

Bruce Hammond, coauthor of Fiske Guide to Getting Into the Right College

"I never would have believed that students could study vocabulary and enjoy a great book like Twilight at the same time, but Brian Leaf makes it possible!"

Peter Facinelli (Dr. Carlisle Cullen in the Twilight saga movies)

Synopsis:

Defining Twilight has 40 four-page chapters: The first page of each chapter lists 8 vocabulary words with page references to Stephenie Meyer's Twilight. Students refer to Twilight, read each word in context, and attempt to define it. The second page of each chapter provides the actual definitions along with useful synonyms, Latin word parts, and memorization tools. The third page presents SAT, ACT, GED, and SSAT drills to memorize and integrate the definitions of the new words. The fourth page gives clearly delineated solutions to the drills.

Every 5 chapters there is a quiz to review and integrate material.

Every 20 chapters there is a review of all of the Twilight vocabulry words in the previous 20 chapters.

Quiz solutions and a Glossary of all of the book's voabulary words, including synonyms, are at the back of the book.
