This one, by far, had to be the easiest to follow. UN-like the after effects (classroom in a book) it does NOT assume you know to much!it starts off with baby steps. we have to learn to crawl before we can walk. the book is much shorter then most of Adobe's books. i managed to finish the lessons that come on DVD rom with the book in 3 days. at 1st when you open adobe ENCORE one might say "this layout makes NO sense" once you complete even the 1st 2 chapters you will begin to see the layout makes perfect sense! the program works extremely well when using it with after effects, premiere, and especially photoshop. keep in mind this is the FIRST edition of encore.always room for improvement and im sure we will see steady improvements on future releases. i found a few of the lessons to be a tad childish, (EX: using a gorrila and giraffe to make menu buttons) thus 4 out of 5 rating the book. However.....i guess the whole point of the book is to teach you the software, despite a few laim examples in the lessons the book DOES teach you well! if your itchin to learn ENCORE then you can't go wrong here!
hope you enjoy the book.once you learn how to create your own DVD's with the software the posibilities are endless

She is going to first grade, I guess there was no kindergarten back then. You won't find any magic spells or dinosaurs or Sponge Bob square pants in this book. Not even a talking mouse. Instead real things happen that kids can really connect to. It all seems so real, you feel like you are there. This book shows you how to get along in class and how to make new friends. Betsy sets a good example for our children in being respectful, caring, helpful, energetic and curious: all the things you need for school. There is no danger to be scared of in this book and yet the visit to this place is so enjoyable that you don't need danger to bring excitement. The adults also set a good example for us. They are respectful and helpful and always doing their best. The best part about this book is that there's more. In the next book, Betsy goes to 2nd grade and surprise! Miss Grey has also been promoted to the 2nd grade. The children are delighted and so is Miss Grey. The book is called Betsy and Billy. Some things never change. There will always be friends and dogs and teachers and birthday parties. Something will always get lost and a good surprise will always happen. You will always have to figure out your problems cleverly and honestly. You will find in this book the things that don't change with the times. You will also find some things did change but you wish they didn't because in your heart you know that that's the way things should be.
