I have used this product before. It's high quality, fun and very straightforward. It's a good reinforcement of what the student is learning.

I'm trying to understand the difference between this and the other lapbook options for zoology...with no product images I'm confused! Is this everything printed and ready to be cut and pasted into folders vs a CD rom everything has to be printed? Also, there is an option to buy lessons 6-13 only in a printed booklet- why would you get only these vs all?
This is a very nice product designed to complement all 13 lessons in the Apologia Zoology 2 book that is pictured on the cover. You will need to buy some file folders to assemble your lap book, but all of the wonderful pictures and cut outs that you see in the advertising samples are included in this kit. Your student just cuts them out and follows instructions to assemble. To properly assemble the book and fill in the blanks on the cut outs, the student does have to read the textbook. It's a great hands on tool to reinforce material and took very little effort on my part because everything was already printed. I highly recommend. I don't have any information about the cd or other purchase options.
