Review: Excellent book, well put together and easy to use. Age range is probably all primary school years but with help from parents for 5-7 year olds. This book will remind (or correct) parents knowledge of English grammer, sorry, grammar, spelling and punctuation. I never knew spelling was so difficult! Small points which I disagree with are, for example, the use of double speech marks with only a passing reference to the fact that some people use single speech marks instead. I thought that the general usage was now single as opposed to double. Still, if you don't agree with what's been said (and that will, I think, be very rarely) then you can correct it yourself before passing it to your child to use as a reference (also check with the school as to their preferred way). All in all, good value and one of the best on the market dealing with this age range.

Review: Some good excercises in here, it is easy explaining and also has some english history in there about the English language. I bought this for my husband as he has been teaching himself English and I think this has helped him a little.
