(Hardcover) This book is currently out of stock and out of print in hardback. For ages 8 and up, fully illustrated.
This book:
- Communicates why grammar and word order are important to be understood.
- Communicates basic grammar concepts with easy to understand illustrations.
- Removes complexity from the subject.
- Teaches how grammar can be used to communicate. Instead of teaching a bunch of rules that one must learn to pass a test.
This book presents grammar in a logical, step-by-step sequence. It helps children to understand the basic building blocks of the English language and how to use those building blocks to better communicate, express their thoughts and understand what they read.
The fundamentals of speech, writing and grammar have typically been complicated into a confusing and constricting set of rules that few children comprehend. This subject is now unraveled and easily understood. This book enables children to learn grammar, not as an arduous set of classroom rules but as something for use in conveying their thoughts through language.
Also applicable to English As a Second Language programs.
