this is a good one. Grammar can be a boring topic, however this book is easy to read and it explains grammar and style very simply at an affordable price. I purchased this book as a refresher. There were many rules that I had forgotten and I had been relying on the spell checker within Word to ensure my documents were grammatically correct. But, I seriously believe that it's important to have a handy reference book to look something up, if you feel spell checker isn't correct.

A quick reference guide with easy-to-understand examples

and clear coverage of verbals and verb tense. Would recommend

for writers of all ages. (12-80)

Other great grammar books?

The Deluxe Transitive Vampire - grammar dispensed from the hands of a skillful writer.

(Conservative-minded families may want to check out the drawings first.)

The Little Brown Handbook - when I want scholarly nitty gritty.

Grammar Girl's Quick and Dirty Tips - quick, accurate,& entertaining.

Painless Grammar - E-Z book for all ages.

English Grammar Workbook for Dummies - love the coverage on verb tenses.

I'm an English teacher and I highly recommend this grammar book. It's comprehensive and easy to understand. Grammar is presented with humor. I love it!

I was disappointed to have paid good money for this book. Many questions are not resolved clearly. There are four mistakes on page 2 alone. I could not possibly recommend this book to anyone, and I'm sorry I bought it. I gave it one star because I couldn't give it less.
