Default Re: Anyone bought this on-line book?

I haven't purchased it, but I have bought a lot of other books. Some really good, some not at all. That's just part of the deal. Any professional subscribes to professional magazines or buys books for advice, help, new information ...

In all fairness to Shelly, I imagine it's wellworth the money. You'll probably only get 10-15 games or so that you can actually use. That's not to say the other won't be good but they probably won't suit you, the teacher, or your students at this time. If it saves you some lesson planning time and brightens up some of your lessons making your job easier, it will be worth it. And I repeat, you'll probably get 10-15 games usable in your classes. That's a lot of games!

Now, $30 is a little steep for an e-book, considering there's no publisher cut or printing expenses on her part. You can also hop onto almost any established ESL forum and find more than 101+ games. I'm sure it (the ebook) will be similar but well indexed with some original content.

Take a look at amazon or some other sites and compare.
