Editorial Reviews

From School Library Journal

Grade 1-3–These concept books define the parts of speech and give examples of their usage. The examples are in capital letters and in a color different from the surrounding text. Bright acrylic illustrations will help younger children visualize each part of speech. They are full of movement and color and make the books inviting. These titles are excellent resources to use along with Ruth Hellers books on the parts of speech.–Lucinda Snyder Whitehurst, St. Christophers School, Richmond, VA

5.0 out of 5 stars Wow! Great illustrations, great book., April 27, 2010
This review is from: If You Were a Noun (Word Fun) (Paperback)
I thought I would use this book as a starting place for my kindergartener -- I think he is ready for the parts of speech.

It turns out my third-grader is completely captivated -- that's a great book. When the big kid reads it to the little kid, we have a winner.

I think the illustrations are simply amazing -- they carry the learning to a much deeper level.

I also recommend verb, adjective, and pronoun -- I have all four.

5.0 out of 5 stars Nouns in Outer Space, September 28, 2008
Amazon Verified Purchase(What's this?)
This review is from: If You Were a Noun (Word Fun) (Paperback)
This is an attractively illustrated and nicely written book for early elementary aged children. It covers proper, singular, plural and collective nouns with the theme of space travel.

The book also describes a simple noun game to play and includes a glossary of space words used adding to educational value.

Amazon Verified Purchase(What's this?)
This review is from: If You Were a Noun (Word Fun) (Paperback)
I ordered this book along with the other books in the series. This is the only one which does not have a smooth Front/Back cover. Wonder if it is only the copy I received or all copies are like that?!!! Otherwise, the contents are good.
