"Since we got
The Americana,
our children
in grades
5 through 12
have used it
constantly"
Mr. and Mrs. R. Byron Wilson,
Denver, Colorado
Whethkr you have one child . or nine, as do
the R. Byron Wilsons - you'll find that The
A.mkricana becomes a focal point in your family
life.
"Since we got The Americana," Mrs. Wilson
wrote to Americana only five months after their
set arrived, "our school children in grades 5
through 12 have used it constantly. It gives us a
real sense of security to know they have ready
access to a wealth of information and knowledge
on nearly any subject they would have to write
or speak on.
And Mr. Wilson notes that "the books seem to
be constantly in use; late at night, I frequently
find six or seven of them lying on the table where
they've been left by our family of students when
homework is over. Spirited discussions among the
children as they learn together are a source of
great satisfaction to Mrs. Wilson and me."
The Americana has the combination of quali
ties needed by your teen-age school child. Here is
one reference set which provides both the complete
ness and authority of a fine adult encyclopedia, and
the sheer readability and usefulness so important
to the college-bound school youngster.
In today's race for the limited number of open
ings in good colleges and universities, can you
afford not to give your child this important
perhaps decisive advantage?
