<![CDATA[do u buy textbook from popular or secondary bookstore?]]>My 9 year old is working through Redspot S1 Advanced Vocaba. Does anyone have expereince of it. Some of the the answers look questionable; or is that because of my limited Vocab ability.

Hi. I am from the UK, and trying to find two books by Redspot Publishing. They are Advanced Vocabulary 1 and Advanced Vocabulary 2.


Firstly, does Redspot still exist

Secondly, is there any publisher that sells these books.

Redspot is available in popular.
The titles you mentioned are for secondary level.

Hi Janet88. Hello and how are you. Yes, I know they are for secondary level books. I just wish to know if they are still available to buy. Tbh, I can no longer find assessment books at Popular online website. Any links to a stockist would be much appreciated.

Edited. Just purchased them from mphonline.com, Malaysia.

For my boy, the appearance will be a function of his use. So far, based on appearance, only the Chinese texts are well utilised. Others remain as new. Very heart pain when I give the books away each year end.

I buy from Popular also. More convenient as Popular is near us and sch is farther away. Don't want to lug heavy books back home.


My child will buy when sch reopens for few books that only available from school.
the last copy not avail at popular is the social studies...bought it when we had to get new uniforms. check list is complete 🕺

My kids’ schools accept nets, cash and cheques and yes, secondary school books are not cheap.
