Editorial Review:
Product Description:
What is a verb? It's easier to show than explain! In this fun and animated introduction to grammer, rhyming verse is used to creatively clarify the concept of verbs. Chock-full of colorful, lively examples, the playful rhymes and illustrations of comical cartoon cats combine to hightlight key words in the sentences. Verbs like toss and tumble, jump and jam, jog and juggle, jig and leap are printed in color for easy identification.

Rating: - I Wish These Books Were Around When I Was a Kid!
I have checked out three of Brian P. Cleary's books at the library including "To Root, to Toot, to Parachute--What is a Verb?" and I am extremely impressed by how much fun they are to read to my 6 year old daughter. Cleary has written a bunch of books and I can't wait to read them all. I'm so jealous that they weren't around when I was a kid.
My daughter has learned a lot all ready with just a couple of readings of these books written in easy to understand verse.

Rating: - Verbs
What a fun way to teach children about verbs ... the rhyming is so addictive!
Rating: - fantastic series
I teach first grade and my kids love the fun rhymes and silly illustrations in this book. It is like a mix of Dr. Seuss and grammar instruction. I highly recommend this book and the others--especially "Hairy, Scary and Ordinary--What is an Adjective?" and "A Mink, A Fink and a Skating Rink--What is a Noun?" If you have kids who are learning to write or teach writing to young kids, get these books!

My five year old daughter loves this book! Prosmitsky's colorful illustrations make it so much more fun learning the parts of speech. My daughter adores the illustrator's goofy pillow-like cats!
Rating: - Time to learn your grammar!
These books are so good at helping kids learn the parts of speech. They give so many clear examples of sentences, with the specific part of speech in a different color so everyone will notice it. I used these in a classroom during english class and they all loved it. A+ to this book!
