English Grammar For Dummies will probably never make your English teacher's top-ten list of must-read books, because you won't have to diagram a single sentence. What you will discover are fun and easy strategies that can help you when you're faced with such grammatical dilemmas as the choice between "I" and "me," "had gone" and "went," and "who" and "whom." With English Grammar For Dummies, you won't have to memorize a long list of meaningless rules (well, maybe a couple in the punctuation chapter!), because when you understand the reason for a particular word choice, you'll pick the correct word automatically.

English Grammar For Dummies covers many other topics as well, such as the following:

-Verbs, adjectives, and adverbs - oh my!
-Preposition propositions and pronoun pronouncements
-Punctuation: The lowdown on periods, commas, colons, and all those other squiggly marks
-Possession: It's nine-tenths of grammatical law
-Avoiding those double negative vibes
-How to spice up really boring sentences (like this one)
-Top Ten lists on improving your proofreading skills and ways to learn better grammar
