Which introduction book on NVR do members recommend? I know Bond and AE both do one. Any others people have found helpful? It is for Latymer. Thanks DG

We've always used BOND 'How to do', Bond NVR books (all the ages) and AE NVR Books.

A freebie which we've all used over the years..............http://www.atestingtime.com/ATestingTim ... tIsNVR.php" onclick="window.open(this.href);return false;

Thank you. This is really helpful. We did NVR for HBS years ago but have not touched it since! DG

Both books are good but both very different styles and suit different children. The AE one probably suits those who struggle to start with as it starts very basic, (too basic for DD, we went straight to book 2).
Bond includes nets/cubes which I don't think AE does.

The CGP books also have a section on what to look for in NVR before starting the different question types.

Schofield and Sims have also come up with a series and have each type explained in the books
