Delivery time: 8-12 business days (International)
Its Shel Silverstein meets Strunk and White and the results are both hilarious and instructive. With over 120 illustrations and gobs of delightfully goofy examples and exercises, this book provides a lighthearted and ludicrous guide to the essential elements of language and grammar...not to mention a few writing tips thrown into the mix.Grammar has often been taught as joyless process of memorizing rules and diagramming phony sentences, but most writers will tell you that grammar actually promotes a love of language. Not only can the study of grammar be fun and joyful, this unique primer can also be used by adults everywhere who simply need a single volume at the ready to keep them on the straight and narrow...and laughing all the way!5.0 out of 5 stars Giggly GrammarReviewed in the United States ???? on September 22, 2011Verified PurchaseHaHaHaHaHaHa. I laughed all the way through The Giggly Guide to Grammar. This grammar book has it all. Hilarious line drawings dramatize principles of grammar (hairy monkeys, aardvarks with buck teeth, MilkDudseating squirrels, straggly threeheaded cats, and more). Loony bin characters meander through the pages (Aunt Zippy with her frizzy hair; sweet little Domenica who raises earthworms; Matilda in her colorful, eyecatching shower cap that hide her trussedup tresses; and others too numerous to mention).Cathy Campbell uses funnysounding words to add to the humor: flimflammer, gazillion, varmints, dreadlocks, pizzazz, hypnosis, zucchini, and pachyderms. She includes lots of buffoonery that teens will love (hairy armpits, underwear, squirming tapeworms being digested in the intestines, taco salad caught in braces, parrots gagging on feather balls, and on and on, almost ad infinitum. Invented names, invented words, and invented situations stand out on each page.Oh, and did I mention that this book does an excellent job on teaching grammar? It does. Campbell includes the easy stuff, you know, nouns, verbs, adjectives. But she also tackles the hard stuff: pronoun predicaments, principle parts of speech, independent and dependent clauses, essential and nonessential clauses (a.k.a. restrictrive and nonrestrictive).The Giggly Guide to Grammar gives what it promises: a good time while learning about grammar. Students will love this book. Adults will love it, too.
