This book is not a simple, tedious grammar workbook. It is an entertaining notebook. Students, especially in high school, usually give up in frustration trying to make sense of tedious grammar. This book is entertaining, with funny pictures. It explains complex concepts and makes them easy to understand. One of the things that highlights the profound quality is that this book is written not for native English speakers, but for those who are learning English as a second language. The book is so neatly organized, that it is pretty much impossible to become confused.

Buy for students from junior high school through college. It is an effective and easy to use reference work. Though primarily aimed at students and educational settings, this book would be a very useful addition to the dictionary, thesaurus, and telephone
