Learning children, and very often adults too, about different part of grammar is very challenging, but this book make a step forward by creating a readable, easy children story about nouns and pronouns and many more. Although the illustrations are very basic, the rhymes are written in a very funny, attractive way, while still bringing some drops of knowledge to the little reader. Recommended especially to those children and their parents fighting hard to figure out what this grammar is all about.

Really cute illustrations, and I love that Wizard Jake helps Emma learn about grammar! However, the whole thing is written in this really awkward rhyming scheme that has a super weird rhythm and is just awful. Would definitely be better if it was just straight prose of Jake helping Emma understand where she went wrong with her English test.

A big thank you to NetGalley for the ARC. I am voluntarily reviewing this book. I found this to be cute, but several forced rhymes were odd.  The concept of conquering fear and being overwhelmed were good.  Overall I rate it a 3.5.  I think most children would like it.

Very cute story that teaches about nouns and pronouns. It also teaches about persistence. I doubt this will be a favorite among children, but it will be helpful in sneaking in grammar lessons

<p> The main character, Emma, has been having trouble with her English skills, receiving an F on a test, and at the same time indisposing Emma towards learning anymore.</p> <p> Poof!</p> <p> Wizard Jake arrives at the scene, rescuing the day by informing reluctant Emma on all she needs to know to get an A. on her test.</p> Kids will definitely not shy away from this one. It has great illustrations by Phillip Orozco, and the actual text is formatted so that it will be enticing (to picky readers).  <p><i>Emma Has a Dilemma!</i> was a very informative read, perfect if you are a teacher or children's educator. I would say that the book was unique because often I find that children's books must stick to a pattern that seems to be universally accepted, rather than ever finding new ways to entertain children. Of course most kids are not going to be especially enthusiastic about learning grammer, but this book changes that. The illustrations go perfectly with the message, providing the "distraction" you may need to actually entice the young reader into the story.</p>
