I LOVE THIS BOOK!
It has helped me a lot during my Primary school years! Best book purchased by my mother (in the 80s) and I have kept the book till now for my son. Singapore educational system should have this as part of their curriculum.

Another historical object of intrigue. Language has changed rapidly these years. Books can't catch up...!
