This book EXPLODES with great word play!! My favorite? "My Niece can see Grease, both in Greece and in Nice, a Czech could be writing a check. A maid could be made to be very afraid if she heard a big herd on the deck."I've read all the books on homonyms and homophones that are out there, and nothing comes close to this exciting text and those lovable cartoon cats.
My 6-year-old son loves this book. I would have given this book five stars, but for the typography; the font is a little too wacky for beginning readers."How Much Can a Bare Bear Bear?" is written in fun and engaging rhyme, with quirky and creative illustrations by Brian Gable. Homonyms and homophones are combined in silly yet perfectly understandable sentences --A SIOUX might not SUE if he KNEW that the GNU that he bought wasn't NEW like you said.-- which make this book not only a great teaching tool, but also a very fun read. I'm looking forward to checking out the other titles in this series.
Excellent book for all language arts teachers in primary and middle schools (use for review). This is another book in Cleary's series and it gets the job done! Excellent springboard book to focus the students!
This whole series of books is absolutely wonderful. Don't hesitate to acquire these fun and funny books. My daughter has dragged them out time and time again. She loves the rhymes and they truly taught her about grammar in the process. She's twelve years old now, and has been reading these books about five years. She now uses them as reference books and I will keep them forever. My grandkids will enjoy them, too!
Yet another great addition to the wacky world of grammar instruction by the writing/illustrating team of Cleary & Gable. Homonyms & homophones come alive through laugh-out-loud animal high jinks as they try and navigate a world of words that sound the same, but have very different meanings. Elementary school students will quickly learn both language devices, and apply them to their writing.
English is hard to learn. My two daughters from Ethiopia have done a great job, but they still are learning four years later. This book helps!
This is a really creatively written book that kids will enjoy. It will help those having confusion with the English language on the different meanings of same words in a fun manner. Great gift idea for teachers who are just starting out or have been teaching for a long time.
Everyone in the family enjoyed this book. Great art work to help the little ones visualize the content. Very funny.
