I recently bought Copy Book I for my son (6), as they seem to be just the thing that he needs. I did not think about looking at the sample pages, will do next time. This book, unfortuantly does not work well for my son, who is left handed. The text is on the left and the place to write is on the right. For my son to use these, he has to put his hand/arm over what he is supposed to be copying. It gets very frustrating have to stop and start when trying to copy something.

I was wondering if you would consider in the future making a left handed version of these books? Right handed people often forget that lefties sometimes need things backwards to a rightie. Even I forgot about my son being a leftie sometimes until we get a book that he has to write in and it is set up for a rightie.

What if you made a copy of the page and set it where he could see it better? Or you could have him write in another composition-type book rather than the copybook. Not a perfect solution, but maybe worth trying.
