Gr 1–3—Despite the series' title, volumes are about different parts of speech. A chart on the Table of Contents in each book explains the function(s) of the part and usually provides one or more example sentences, with the relevant part of speech printed in red. Generally, one or two sentences appear on every page, offering several examples of the speech part. In the adjective book, there are no example sentences in the TOC chart, and in the charts explaining "adjective" and "adverb," the word "modify" isn't defined. Furthermore, in the noun volume's chart, a noun is described as being the "subject" of a sentence, but that term isn't explained. High-quality close-up color photos feature racially and ethnically diverse children and families engaging in joyful activities; these accompany and clarify sentences. Back matter featured in each volume includes a word list and a picture glossary. VERDICT The basic building blocks of reading, writing, and understanding English are taught in this companion to the Punctuation series and should be used with it, since parts of speech are included in that series' back matter.
