Grammar-Land
Allow me to introduce you to Judge Grammar. Judge Grammar is a great, stern old Judge who rules over Kings and Queens. When Judge Grammar took control of Grammar-Land, he gave all of his words to his nine followers: rich and pompous Mr. Noun, his useful friend Mr. Pronoun, little Article, the talkative Adjective, busy Dr. Verb and Adverb, perky Preposition, convenient Conjunction and the odd Mr. Interjection. Our story begins noisily, as there is much quarreling amongst the nine parts of speech, over the ownership of certain words. Unfortunately, they awaken Judge Grammar from his long nap! Judge Grammar determines that he must restore order to the rules and calls upon his counsel, Sergeant Parsing, who has the task of finding out all of the information and Dr. Syntax who determines right and wrong according to the law. In the chapters to follow, each of the nine must defend their case before the judge and his counsel, resulting in a delightful introduction to grammar rules and application. Originally published in 1877, this charming allegory presents clear explanations in a delightful way. Pb. 109 pgs. ~ Deanne
