The title says it all!
I would give this book more stars if I could! First of all...it is spiral bound! All teacher books should be make this way. It is so easy to make nice photocopies without having to break the binding of the book. The activities are wonderful and captivating for the students. I teach middle school learning support students who dreaded English classes. They actually look forward to sharing ...

This is such an Eye Opener Book
I've been studying japanese for quite some time, and I wasn't even aware of how the japanese adjectives can conjugate just like verbs. I thought that the only conjugation's that adjectives possessed were the Plain/ Polite Past/Present, and negative/affirmative, as well as the -ba, -tari, -tara, and the -sa form. But turn's out that this is just part of the basic's. Just like with verbs the ...

Fun and delightful way to learn new languages
These cards are so much fun. The drawings on the cards are so delightful that they make me smile and chuckle as I flip through them and test my vocabulary. They're so small that I can take them anywhere. I think they would appeal to kids and adults.

Fun book
My folks gave me this book. They said it would help me understand about nouns and adjectives. I thought it was just a lot of fun. I really liked the scene when the spider got loose and scared the kids. Jake Houseman, age 9, Kenway, Iowa

Great book for teaching grammar skills!!
I'm a second grade teacher and I have all of Brian Cleary's books. They are wonderful. They help students get a better understanding of the parts of speech by giving them real world examples in a fun way. My students love the silly pictures and the rhyming words. I'm usually asked to read these books again and again.

An intelligent collection of opposites make learning easy.
By placing the opposites together on the visual cards, memorizing vocabulary is made easier. The humorous pictures make using them fun. Children seem to particularly enjoy and amuse themselves with these easy to carry along packets of German descriptive words. By focusing on adjectives and adverbs beginning speakers immediately expand their control of a language. My 12 year old son has been ...

Hands on grammar!
I have many grammar activity books, but this is definitely the best! It includes many ideas for learning grammar in a way kids don't even realize they are learning because they are having so much fun doing them! For example, my students loved to make "animal prepositional poems". I had another teacher borrow the book, and she bought it herself! With this book you are teaching quality not ...

When You Catch an Adjective, Kill It: The Parts of Speech, for Better And/Or Worse

Parts of speech? Horrors! But clear and applicable in this book
I bought this book because I am ninety years old and had never been taught the parts of speech--and obviously did not have much time left if I were to learn them! This is far better written and presented than anything I have looked at before. I not only finished it it will stay with my dicionary at my side. Bill Weifenbach

C is for CUTE!!!
I bought this for my 3 year old son and he loves it, as do my other kids, 5 and 2. The kids love the silly animals doing silly things, Sandra Boynton's trademark. There is an animal and an adjective beginning with each letter. I like that there are negative emotions sprinkled in-- ever get sick of kid's media being either all sweetness and light or all obnoxious backtalk, with no real life ...

empowers early readers
This book's simple concept is an excellent educational tool. It is a fun read. My daughter loves this book. She is a preschooler who wants to read. She knows what each page says allowing her to "read to me". So many early reading books are dry, or have random words that are hard to connect. This book is simple and interesting.

An Okay Book if purchased at the right price - a review of "Calico Cat at the Zoo"
This is the Sixth 'Calico Cat' book we have read in the series. [None purchased, btw.] Each book tends to be different from the next. One was a primer, another was more like an advertisement for the library (okay, I didn't really object to that), the third and fourth were about shapes and colors (respectively); while the fifth was about the seasons. This last book is all about CC's trip to ...
Learn Japanese Verbs and Adjectives Using Memory Mnemonics

Very Helpful!
This book really helped me to learn japanese verbs. They can be very tricky to understand, and keep them all straight. Using simple memory techniques, through some memorable, (and sometimes funny) sentences, this book helped to trigger the verbs. When I lived in Japan, I found myself constantly using these triggers to engage in simple conversation. (I am still at a beginner's level, but now I ...

An entertaining monograph on how Greek took a PIE inflectional type and ran with it
Torsten Meissner first wrote this monograph as a Ph.D thesis in the 1995. His view on some matters were subsequently refined, and this revision published in the Oxford Classical Monographs series shares with the thesis "only the author and the subject matter". For anyone with training in Indo-European linguistics, with especial experience in Greek, Latin, Sanskrit, and Old Church Slavonic, this ...
