Grades: 6+
Description:
The words you use say a lot about you. Grammar makes a lasting
impression on friends, co-workers, and teachers, but learning the
rules has always been boring. That's why the folks at The
Princeton Review created Grammar Smart.
Grammar Smart uses a witty, irreverent approach to help
individuals write and speak with greater clarity and confidence.
Instead of boring readers with countless rules and confusing
grammatical terms, The Princeton Review shows them the logic
behind each correct sentence. Everything in Grammar Smart is
nuts-and-bolts English designed to help readers express
themselves more clearly. They'll learn how to choose between
"that" and "which" and when to use "as" instead of "like," and
they'll know for sure if this is between "you and me" or "you
and I."
Includes:
• The basic parts of speech -- nouns, verbs, adjectives, etc.
• Pronoun-verb agreement and parallel construction
• Tips on how to avoid misplaced modifiers and dangling
participles
• Lively, humorous examples to illustrate meanings
• Brief question-and-answer reviews
