FantasticWhat a great way to get kids interested in grammar. So many kids develop an aversion to the subject, much like math phobia. But there's no need for the topic to be dry or difficult, as Dr. Elliott so deftly illustrates.
"Painless Grammar" is Really PainlessHaving graduated from high school many years ago, my last grammar course was a bit out of date. The purpose for my purchasing this book was to obtain a quick reference for current rules of grammar to help convince my friend why I suggest certain changes in his book before his manuscript is submitted. I was a bit disappointed when I realized the target audience for this book was kids. However, as I read it, I was delighted. Adults who were staunch grammar students from decades ago (like myself) can refresh their knowledge as well as learn a few things in the process - all in an easy-to-understand format. This is a great reference book!
Great provider!This book is terrific, and the seller had it delivered way before the due date. It was also in great condition.
Great book even for adults!I bought the 1997 edition when I was in my early 40s and working on my bachelor's degree. I bought the book to help me review grammar and prepare for the required writing exam for graduation. I now have my master's degree and I still keep this book on my desk and within reach! It's an easy read and an easy reference for the times you need help with those intricacies of American grammar.
Great Review for VCLA ExamI used this book to review for the VCLA Exam (for teaching certification) and I think it helped me very much. (I passed) Almost enjoyable to read!
Product DescriptionThis very approachable text combines instruction in parts of speech and sentence structure with down-to-earth examples, funny illustrations, and examination of some of the more amusing and peculiar words in the English language. A chapter on clear e-mail communication and etiquette is brand new in this edition, as are many of the author’s challenging “Brain Ticklers.” Her helpful chapter on how to edit a school paper has also been heavily revised and updated.
Barron’s popular Painless Series of study guides for middle school and high school students offer a lighthearted, often humorous approach to their subjects, transforming details that might once have seemed boring or difficult into a series of interesting and mentally challenging ideas. Most titles in the series feature many fun-to-solve “Brain Tickler” problems with answers at the end of each chapter.
