Editorial Review / Publisher's Information:
Product Description
This very approachable text combines instruction in parts of speech and sentence structure with down-to-earth examples, funny illustrations, and examination of some of the more amusing and peculiar words in the English language. A chapter on clear e-mail communication and etiquette is brand new in this edition, as are many of the author’s challenging “Brain Ticklers.” Her helpful chapter on how to edit a school paper has also been heavily revised and updated.
Barron’s popular Painless Series of study guides for middle school and high school students offer a lighthearted, often humorous approach to their subjects, transforming details that might once have seemed boring or difficult into a series of interesting and mentally challenging ideas. Most titles in the series feature many fun-to-solve “Brain Tickler” problems with answers at the end of each chapter.

• Great Review For Vcla Exam

I used this book to review for the VCLA Exam (for teaching certification) and I think it helped me very much. (I passed) Almost enjoyable to read!

• Excellent For Homeschooling
09 September, 2009
This makes a GREAT middle school grammar book. It is clear and simple. I only added sentence diagramming. Compare the price and the content to other homeschool grammars and this one comes out on top in my book. In fact we're still using it as a light reference when writing, though I do disagree about it being for high school. This is the perfect book to get kids ready for high school English.

I love these books from the Barrons library. I was getting confused with grammer. This is my freshman year and I want to improve my GPA. I can honestly tell you this book delivers. I took my first exam today with more confidence than all the notes I took in class. Well worth the money.
