this is a clear, easy to use grammer workbook. most teachers may say it's too easy. i have been looking for a clear, uncomplicated grammer approach for my 9th grader and this is close. the one thing you need to know is that if you get this workbook you need the seperate book to actually gain a complete understanding of what is being taught/reviewed. my 9th grader is slightly dyslexic and she is able to understand and complete the tasks in this book quite well on her own.
Great tool for the craft of writing but I only gave it three stars because throughout the entire book it comments "....can be found in The Only Grammer Book You'll Ever Need." I felt like I was missing information so I ended up purchasing the grammer book and working it before getting to the Grammer & Style.
I teach writing and have probably close to fifty books on writing in my collection. I carry the book that this is the workbook to with me and use daily. I give it as a prize to writers in some of my workshops. I have worked my way through this workbook, and it reinforced all I've learned and reminded me of details I've forgotten. Nothing is better than actually applying what you learn and this workbook is the way to do it. I recommend it to my students.
Nothing technically wrong with this book, but some things you should know before you buy:1. of 255 pages, 97 pages are diction - spelling and commonly confused words.2. another 20 pages at the end are index, leaving 138 pages of actual grammar exercises3. Most of those 138 pages are only 1/2 to 3/4 full.Again, I am not complaining - the book is sold as a companion to an instructional book (which I did not buy). I just expected more.
This book is really easy to follow. I also purchased the reference book "The Grammar Book You'll Ever Need". This book is perfect for kids and adults. I feel more aware as mother helping my 11year old with his homework. I'm becoming a more aware writer. God Bless :0)
Having received this book I did a quick once-over and flip through to see what I had in store for workbook exercises. My intention was to find a book that would help me with style and sentence structure to help with my creative writing. However this book covers spelling, grammar and syntax. The building blocks and foundation of English grammar.. While great for those that are interested in that...its not quite what I wanted. I should have utilized the LOOK INSIDE! tool that is on the product page to see what I was in for. Oh well. I am giving away the book to someone that's interested in it.
Very nice! Short and sweet! Most test questions are geared to a level for students who may not be at the high-school- or college-level, but this workbook provides a long list of the most misused and some of the most misspelled words (as I am not the best speller with more difficult words). I found these chapters to be extremely helpful. The questions in the chapter have 1000+ misspelled words and were more difficult than the grammar questions in the workbook for me; most grammar books that I've seen just pair words up together; this book provides sentences from which you can choose the correct answers. Would be a really handy guide, along with the book that accompanies it, for anyone who wants to improve grammar terminology, misused words, and misspelled words quickly. However, I would strongly encourage using a more in-depth book if you want to further your grammar lessons with a deeper analysis Such books can also be bought on  (i.e., a McGraw-Hill grammar book, such as "The McGraw-Hill Handbook of English and Grammar" or a college-level book,such as the "Simon & Schuster Handbook for Writers", which covers not only grammar and writing, but also the different style guides (i.e., APA, CM, and CBE styles).
Great for my SAT prep and AP it courses as warm-up and review. I use this in high school classes.
