Grammar's Girl's 101 Troublesome Words You'll Master in No Time
By Mignon Fogarty
According to the Grammar Girl author, Mignon Fogarty, I can
use the phrase: "you have got to
read this book." Being a word person myself, I appreciate the clever way
each troublesome word or phrase's history is explained and advice given as to its
usage (or non-usage). Most appealing are the quotes from popular TV shows or
movies used to illustrate her points on correct grammar. Teens will be able to
identify with modern English examples, making grammar fun - or I can even say
grammar is the "funnest." Recommended to middle and high school language
arts teachers and curious teens alike.
