It's book two 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 Vinny and Lucy approach life differently. He's all action, while she's content to sit back and be. With their friend Jake the adjective in trouble, however, the two verbs must put aside their differences and work together to save the day. Clear and informative back matter includes textbook-style definitions and usage examples of transitive action verbs, intransitive action verbs, and linking verbs. \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.\n            \u003cdiv\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eNumber of Pages:\u003c\/strong\u003e 32\u003c\/div\u003e\n            \u003cdiv\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eDimensions:\u003c\/strong\u003e 0.3 x 7.6 x 7.8 IN\u003c\/div\u003e\n            \u003cdiv\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eIllustrated:\u003c\/strong\u003e Yes\u003c\/div\u003e\n            \u003cdiv\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003ePublication Date:\u003c\/strong\u003e April 24, 2019\u003c\/div\u003e\n            ","brand":"BooksCloud","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":52670375788851,"sku":"9781644420171","price":13.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0300\/5595\/6612\/files\/MW9RNUl0RWl1M0J2VjJUU3lFbGFDUT09.webp?v=1762840441","url":"https:\/\/www.vysn.com\/en-ca\/products\/vinny-the-action-verb-lucy-the-linking-verb-paperback","provider":"VYSN","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
