Word Fun
Instead of treating grammar as a list of rules to memorize, Word Fun introduces the eight parts of speech through humorous stories, colorful illustrations, and imaginative "If you were a..." scenarios. As children explore nouns, verbs, adjectives, adverbs, pronouns, conjunctions, interjections, and prepositions, they discover how each part of speech functions in everyday language through memorable, playful examples.
The engaging illustrations and conversational approach make abstract grammar concepts easier to grasp, while the story-based format encourages children to connect what they're learning to the words they encounter in reading, writing, and conversation.
Whether your child is meeting the parts of speech for the first time or needs a fresh way to review them, Word Fun provides an approachable introduction that builds understanding without feeling like a traditional grammar lesson.
By combining humor, storytelling, and clear explanations, Word Fun helps your child develop a stronger understanding of language while discovering that grammar can be both useful and enjoyable.

Entertaining way to learn about different parts of speech. My student especially enjoyed the application activities at the close of each chapter. I prefer that my family not use many of the words included in the interjection chapter so that is why I removed 1 star.

Great Book!

Word Fun is a great way to introduce or review the parts of speech. It is well written and fun. We are working our way through this book for the second time this year. If I forget, my son will remind me to read this one. We will definitely refer back to this one time and again!

My kid wants me to give this 2 stars, but it's really well done and hasn't actually been met with resistance.

Honestly it was good review for mom and dad! We read thru the year for 5 & 7 year old and referred back often as needed. Great book to have for years to come.

Love this book, but be gentle with it!

I LOVE this book, it is so much fun! Just beware of the binding, it is super flimsy and needs to be handled gently.

We use this book once a week between lessons. We love to play the games with each chapter. We have made it through the book twice now. I have even learned parts of speech that I forgot. The graphics are great in the book.

A FAVORITE at our House
Vanessa H.
This book is constantly being pulled off the shelf, even when it's not in the lesson rotation, because it's just so much fun to read. The book covers all of the parts of speech in quite a bit of depth - but kids don't realize how much grammar they are learning because they are having so much fun with the story. This book knocks it out of the park!
