Www.marktredinnick.com.au/index.php/writing/more/the_little_green_grammar_book2/ Published : Saturday, January 02, 2010 | Label: Books The Little Green Grammar Book, twin to The Little Red Writing Book (UNSWP, October 2008), aims to do for grammar what the red book does for style. And in the same tone of voice. It’s useful, but it has attitude. It’s fun, I’m told, to read. Grammar is the rules for paradise, I say in the book; writing is the paradise. Grammar is the set of rules you’ll need to know and sometimes cleverly break, but never forget, if you want to write with grace or cool or circumspection. However your paradise is configured.
The laws of grammar are also like the rules (mostly unwritten) of democracy. You want to write to win her love or secure the bid or pass the exam or nail the speech—you’re going to need some grammar. This is not a book for pedants. This is the kind of grammar book—I’m sorry—a poet writes about grammar. The Little Green Grammar Book is widely available.
Here’s how I put it in a media release that went out with the book. 1. 2. 3. 4. A. The Official Roald Dahl Website. Home. Write Every Time Lottie Stride. Pygmalion George Bernard Shaw. Grammar for Everyone : Practical Tools for Learning and Teaching Grammar. Chris Haughton's Portfolio - SHH! WE HAVE A PLAN.
