It’s Shel Silverstein meets Strunk and White and the results are both hilarious and instructive!  Most writers will tell you that grammar is much more than a set of rules or a list of commands. Grammar actually can promote a love of language -- grammar can be  fun, and fun to teach.

This unique primer, with over 120 delightful illustrations and gobs of goofy examples and exercises, provides a lighthearted and ludicrous guide to the essential elements of language and grammar (not to mention a few writing tips tossed into the mix). 

Cathy Campbell is the inspired artist-teacher every student remembers long after graduation.  Teachers will delight in the laugh-out-loud examples and thoroughly constructed exercises that will keep their students on the straight and narrow... and laughing all the way.
