Customer Reviews: Quick and Wonderful! September 13, 2009 Regina Flint I was in a panic with the start of school and my favorite language resource book for 15 years was missing! What was I going to do? Luckily, one of my friends suggested that I try Amazon and I am so glad that I did. My order came quickly and was here even before the school year started! My stress went down tremendously and the quality of the book was fantastic! I would highly recommend this book and this company! I love you!

The description of this book was exactly the way the vendor had specified. I was very pleased with my purchase and that it arrived very quickly even though I didn't request "express" shipping.
Good Grammar Taught Well September 15, 2008 Terri J. Rice (Pasco, WA United States) 9 out of 9 found this review helpful
This is a huge workbook! It has a lot of review. After initially covering a part of grammar: preposition, noun, pronoun, adjective, adverb, conjunction, interjection, the student is then given a lot of practice.
At the beginning of the book Wanda Phillips states that the "student must learn the 50 prepositions... memorized" I absolutely agree. No more guess work with what word is a preposition. There are 53 in this workbook but if you take them one letter at a time they will not be hard to learn, " about, above, across after, against, along, amid, among, around, at, atop." We use hand motions to go along with the preposition which really helps cement the words in our heads. When those are learned you move on to the B's.
Phillips reasoning is that if you can identify prepositions and eliminate all prepositional phrases in a sentence, you will be able to identify subject, verb, direct object etc. a lot easier because you, for example, won't be confusing a beginning prepositional phrase with being the subject of the sentence.
Mastery is the key to grammar and this book helps you get there.

We use this for my homeschooled 7th grader's grammar course. Similar to prior easy grammar books but slightly more advanced.
