Does Singapore get less picture-heavy/faster as it progresses? I have 1B here, which we fooled around with a bit when DD was in K. Looking at it again, I know exactly why she disliked it. It's actually a bit reminscent of Everyday Math, which she also didn't like. What am I missing? I know it's popular. I ordered it online so have never seen the higher-level books.

ETA--still trying to articulate what I want. We need something that moves very fast but that also does not assume familiarity with even basic concepts--for instance, she does not know how to manipulate fractions or multiply multi-digit numbers yet. So it's not like I can just hand her a 4th grade textbook. But even if I did sit down with her and work on that 4th grade textbook, she would probably become impatient with the slow speed of it once she "got" the concept. Oh, you guys know what I mean, right?
