“Learning grammar has never been so much fun!” - School Library Journal
Hailed as the Schoolhouse Rock for the 21st Century, Grammaropolis uses personified parts of speech and punctuation marks along with traditional instruction and assessment to revolutionize the way millions of students have learned about grammar and writing.
There's a reason students can tell you every single thing that happened in their favorite movies but struggle to retain much of the important information you're trying to cover in school: human beings are hard-wired to remember what we connect with on an emotional level.
In Grammaropolis, adverbs don't just modify verbs; adverbs are bossy, telling the verbs where to go, when to leave, and how 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. Grammaropolis combines traditional quiz-based instruction with original narrative content that appeals to different learning styles and encourages students to make a deeper connection with the elements of grammar.
