    America's leading publisher/distributor of quality Arizona learning materials, featuring over 50 products to enhance the study of Arizona, all written and designed by Arizona educators: student texts, teacher resources, classroom activities, Arizona Bingo, maps & charts, puzzles & games, writing exercises, tests, and computer software. The largest selection of Arizona history materials available, all aligned with Arizona's social studies standards! Their series of ten books entitled "Ali-Shonak: The Story of Arizona" is perfect for homeschool families with children of all ages to learn about Arizona's history together. The text is interesting and informative, the illustrations and layout are appealing - and best of all, they’re fun! As the title suggests, it's more like reading a story about Arizona rather than a history text. Even better, all ten individual Ali-Shonak books are now available in full color on a CD! When the student clicks on a page, the author reads the entire text aloud to the student. This works especially well for auditory learners, and allows even non-readers (adult or children) to learn all about the wonders of Arizona's history. I highly recommend these books (in either format) for an enjoyable Arizona study.

It specifically emphasizes the state's Christian heritage and influence.
