Blue Book of Grammar and Punctuation November 16, 2008 Very helpful - covers everything you need to know on writing a story or news article with correct grammar and punctuation. Brings you up to date on modern-day grammar and punctuation, as well as emphasizing rules that have been in existence forever!
Grammar book review October 24, 2008 It is a good resource. I lead a GED class and I wanted it for assistance with lesson plans, worksheets, etc. I would have preferred more worksheets - and a more user friendly approach to help people learn grammar. But it is a good tool and I will probably use it often over the years. Would have been better if the pages could be easily removed for copying. The review said it copied easily but it does not - I will probably just tear the book apart and put it in a folder.
The Blue Book of Grammar and Punctuation September 13, 2008 This book opens flat on the table for easy viewing. The index is very thoroughly laid out. I had seen this book on my writing workshop. They linked this book also to Amazon. Excellent book for any writing. I am writing a novel:THE ROCK OF NEREID and hope to sell it here on Amazon. I have been purchasing many GOOD grammar and fiction writing book here. I plan to sell my novel on Amazon.com

Makes grammar easy to learn - clear & simple for anyone June 4, 2008 0 out of 1 found this review helpful
This book is ideal for anyone wanting to sharpen his/her English grammar skills. As a virtual assistant who does quite a bit of editing for my clients, I have used the contents of this book as a quick reference when something stumps me. Whether you are learning English as a second language or you are a writer or editor wanting to look up a little-known grammar rule, you will find that this comprehensive reference book is perfect for your needs. If you aren't sure if it will cover the topic(s) you're looking for, the author has the entire contents of the book online at grammarbook.com so you can take a look before you buy. This book has been a great help to me and several of my colleagues, and I would highly recommend it to others!

The workbook's ease of use is what stood out the most for me. I enjoy a hands on approach and being able to test my newly acquired knowledge with the quizzes truly helps. She also presents a lot of extra information on her website for free [...] which is great for those who may not have the financial means to supply a classroom with books.
