It's book three of the \u003ci\u003eMeet the Parts of Speech\u003c\/i\u003e series, in which the eight parts of speech are personified based on the roles they play in the sentence. \u003c\/b\u003e \u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e When Jake's nemesis pulls a prank and turns Grammaropolis into a grey, misshapen, tasteless town, Jake is forced to run around restoring everything--the colors, shapes, sizes, tastes, and more--to the way it was all meant to be. Clear and informative back matter includes textbook-style definitions and examples of adjectives modifying nouns and pronouns along with comparative and superlative adjectives. \u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e In Grammaropolis, adverbs don't just modify verbs; adverbs are \u003ci\u003ebossy\u003c\/i\u003e. They tell the verbs \u003cb\u003ewhere\u003c\/b\u003e to go, \u003cb\u003ewhen\u003c\/b\u003e to leave, and \u003cb\u003ehow\u003c\/b\u003e to get there. A pronoun doesn't just replace a noun; Roger the pronoun is a shady character who's always trying to trick Nelson the noun into giving up his spot. The \u003ci\u003eMeet the Parts of Speech\u003c\/i\u003e series uses the mechanics of character and story (plot, motivation, setting, etc.) to breathe life into what has traditionally been unengaging subject matter. \u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e Our story-based approach combines traditional instruction with original narrative content, which appeals to different learning styles, increases both engagement and retention, and encourages students to make a deeper connection with the parts of speech and punctuation marks.\u003cdiv\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eNumber of Pages:\u003c\/strong\u003e 34\u003c\/div\u003e\u003cdiv\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eDimensions:\u003c\/strong\u003e 0.1 x 7.8 x 7.9 IN\u003c\/div\u003e\u003cdiv\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eIllustrated:\u003c\/strong\u003e Yes\u003c\/div\u003e\u003cdiv\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003ePublication Date:\u003c\/strong\u003e April 24, 2019\u003c\/div\u003e","brand":"Books by splitShops","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":42741716123711,"sku":"9781644420133","price":9.05,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0105\/8226\/1823\/files\/d98ed132473d8762ce0d1b1c43fa2124.webp?v=1765161550","url":"https:\/\/dhlswag.com\/products\/jake-the-adjective-paperback","provider":"BBB","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
