It is written very well for a textbook. If you have a strong reader, it is a great resource. Each section of each chapter includes a great amount of information in succinct format. If you struggle with reading comprehension, you will become easily frustrated and/or be unable to comprehend the text for the purpose it was intended. As a last resort, purchase an earlier edition (I have the fifth edition) and see how you feel about the level of difficulty and let the child read a small section without pressure. That experience will guide your decision.
HTH!
