The Amazing Pop-up Grammar Book (Amazing Pop-Ups)

It's hard to believe that anyone could make grammar interesting and fun to learn, but Jennie Maizels and Kate Petty have done the impossible. Their colorful, detailed and busy Amazing Pop-Up Grammar Book is full of inventive games, puzzles and mysteries that turn the very dull into the very creative. Kids lift flaps, pull tabs, turn wheels, find hidden treasures and pop-ups as they learn about the different parts of speech and then get lots of entertaining practice activities putting this new knowledge to use. Perfect for children 7 and up and packed with hours of fun, youngsters will find something new and engaging to do every time they open the book.

They really enjoyed this book!

I didn't believe anyone can make "grammar" interesting to children. I have been teaching children English grammar for ten years. I was bored to teach them such boring things but the author of this book has changed my thought absolutely.

I want to show them this book, but I'm afraid my children won't let it go until they have read it thousands of times!

My kids like all the pop-up which are well done. Our second grade teacher borrowed it...it came back with a few of the pop-ups destroyed but I'm buying a second copy. It is easy to really understand the grammar concepts after going through the book. It was a good way for an adult to learn too--just in case you want to know about prepositions or adverbs or other long forgotten concepts.

After playing with this book myself for 20 minutes, I decided that my daughter, who struggles with grammar, would enjoy going through it and reviewing. Even at age 10, she found it entertaining, and even took it to bed to read before falling asleep (WHAT? A GRAMMAR BOOK? ). As a kinetic learner, it made a huge impact on her; it is literally a "hands-on" presentation of basic grammatical concepts. I believe it would be an extremely useful tool for any classroom teacher to incorporate into their lessons, as well!
