About us A merican Book Company’s writers and curriculum specialists have decades
of total teaching experience. We’ve worked with students at every level—
from kindergarten through middle school, and from high school to college
and teacher prep.

Each of our state test-prep books is tailored to your state education board’s stan-
dards and objectives. We take pride in writing books that are accurate, effective,
easy to read, enjoyable for teachers, and engaging for students.

Our books and software are each specially designed to help students prepare and
review for individual state exit exams, state assessments, and graduation tests.
We also publish materials based on state content standards for concept and skill
development in math, reading, language arts, science, social studies, and writing.

We don’t try to come up with secret tricks for passing standardized tests. Instead,
we focus on building skills. Our books and software are all about concrete explana-
tions, step-by-step instructions, plentiful practice exercises, interactive graphics,
and full-length practice tests. Plus, each book features a Diagnostic Test, which shows
your students exactly how they can maximize their test-prep time by digging into
real standards-based content.

A merican Book Company is pleased to


introduce our E-book versions. When you order
a set of 30 books or more of any of our test-prep
book titles, you now have the option to purchase
an E-book version in PDF* format of our books
to display on your interactive whiteboard.
E-Book
• Displays the same pages as your students’ books
• Works with any whiteboard or projection device
We are now also offering our Middle School Science
Posters and Projecting Success! resources in digital
versions!

Testimonials

“The story selections [in the Passing the ISTEP+ GEE in Language Arts book] are more contemporary.
They include references to movies and shows that are familiar to them. It’s easier for students to relate
to these stories.” - Rose Lacey at Batesville High School, IN

“If you’re looking for something that is student-friendly and matches South Carolina’s standards, this
is it!” - Diane Davis at Marion High School, SC, speaking about our Passing the South Carolina HSAP
in ELA: Reading book

Emily Rash, a Mathematics Teacher in Monroe, LA, says that our books correlate perfectly with the
LEAP GEE Exit Exams. Among her students, 75 percent had previously failed the math portion of the
exam. After the students studied with our workbooks, “EVERYONE PASSED!”

“[The California Mathematics Review] book is so much better than what we were using. It gives the
students a foundation in the basic concepts and then builds on that foundation.”
- Richard Gragnani at Tranquility High School, CA

“I have found no materials that compare to your [Passing the LEAP Graduation Exit Exam]series. It
is my opinion that my new school district would benefit greatly from the purchase and use of your
books.” -Benton M. Foster, a former teacher from LA, currently working in AK

“The best things about the [Passing the Georgia Social Studies Graduation Test] book are how it’s
broken into chapters based upon the periods of history, the fact that it’s relatively concise, is easily
readable, and has no distractions. This book does the job you want it to do!”
- Bill Malone at Morgan County High School, GA
