About the Book
The ultimate resource for proper grammar.

About the Author
Marvin Terban is a bestselling, award-winning author of more than 30 books for children, most of them about the English language. Called a "master of wordplay" by the American Library Association's Booklist and "Mr. English for Kids" by the Children's Book-of-the-Month Club, Marvin is truly an expert on teaching the art of language. For over 40 years, Marvin has taught English, Latin, Public Speaking, Theater, and other subjects at Columbia Grammar and Preparatory School in New York City.

My Take on the Book
Has it been years since you last considered proper grammar? How long has it been since you looked at different parts of speech or at spelling and punctuation. This book takes all of these areas and more and makes the topics easy to understand for all ages. Parents can look at this as a refresher course to aid them and their children. Children can use this to completely change the way they look at the English language. The book is well laid out and the areas are color coded and well marked. The book was an easy read and one that all should read at least once!
