Reviews

Another winner from philanthropist author Vanita Oelschlager. Humorous illustrations support and explain what a dangling participle is and how to correct one. The book makes it easy to remember and avoid the common pitfalls. Although it's aimed at younger readers, the lessons contained are timely and fun for adult readers as well.

I do wish that the examples in the book hadn't all been formatted in the same way, and I felt that some of the corrected versions were a little stiff and unnatural. Overall, however, I really enjoyed this book and think it could make a fun addition to a grammar unit in a school or homeschool environment.

Three and a half stars
