Recommends it for: learning parts of speech and proper grammar; for fun & for the illustrations
Recommended to Lisa by: Miriam
I just love Heller’s parts of speech books. I haven’t actually read one for years but now I’m reading two in a row, two I discovered only very recently.

This one is particularly great. Most of the book’s text is a rhyme that manages to educate about prepositions and about how to use them properly. I’m embarrassed to admit that I learned two new things, but I’m grateful that I learned them. The words that are prepositions are shown in blue, which is a terrific help to learners.

Vivid pictures. It talks about various prepositions and when it is appropriate to use them. Excellent!
