Description

The new revised edition of Lidia Stanton's bestselling book of cartoons demystifying over 200 of the most difficult spellings, fully adapted for a US readership. The book is structured around confusing pairs of words, such as homophones or words that 'go together', tricky everyday words and tricky academic words, with memorable illustrations on every page to help you connect the word's meaning and graphical features with its spelling pattern.

This is not a traditional spelling book, but a resource that will really get you thinking, and laughing out loud. This guide encourages active learning and recollection, breaking away from repetitive methods such as 'look, cover, write, check', enabling you to effortlessly recall and identify once-confusing spelling patterns.

This says it is a children's book, but I think every person needs to read this every 5 years! Adults are the WORST with grammar and spelling of common words! I would have loved to see this book with color, but overall I really loved this book! It has every possible common misspelled/misused word! I believe we are the smartest when we were in high school and forced to know these things! Somewhere after high school graduation people tend to forget what they learned for years!

This is a very creative way to share mnemonics of multiple meaning words or words that sound alike. I think this would be a great reference in a classroom. It has an index to easily look words up.
