Book Synopsis

Turn the wheels, lift the flaps, and pull the tabs to get the lowdown about parts of speech, punctuation, and sentences.

Want to turn grammar into a game? Name the pictures to get a handle on nouns. Spin a wheel to see verbs in action. Flip some flaps and put a few adjectives to work, creating some silly characters in the process. And what do pronouns have to do with looking in a mirror -- or prepositions with walking a dog through a pop-up park? There's nothing fusty about learning the basics of grammar with this jam-packed fun house of a lesson book, republished with a colorful new cover.
