 Great Hands-on Tool, 2008-09-28
This book is packed with exercises and useful tips. It starts from basic verbs and nouns, and moves onto punctuation, dialogue, and more advanced writing skills. I am finding this book very useful, as an aspiring horror and mystery writer. I need to brush-up on my grammar skills, and having this workbook, plus the English Grammar for Dummies book, has really helped me with some of my personal goals. Thanks, and I highly recommend this book.

Wonderful review of American and British Grammar, 2008-07-15
English Grammar Workbook For Dummies (For Dummies (Language & Literature)) This book, with its companion 'English Grammar for DUMMIES', are wonderful tools for those of us who need to refresh our skills. I highly recommend this book for native speakers of the English language, and for those whom speak English as a second language. The author's ability of explaining the English language grammatical rules, in my opinion, is fantastic.

Although I know English Well, 2008-04-01
This book helps for many of the things I may have forgotten from my school days 30yrs ago. Very helpful for young and old so if you are a student and need help this workbook is very good.

 a muddled effort at fun, accessible instruction, 2007-10-21
Though the sincerity and hard work of the author are evident throughout "English Grammar Workbook for Dummies," the glibness and zaniness of the book's explanations and exercises undermine its effectiveness. Like many other texts in the "...for Dummies" series, this book uses a playful voice and an excess of random, silly jokes in an attempt to make the subject matter more accessible and engaging. The result is a mostly unfunny, overlong workbook that obscures its own points with needlessly dumbed-down terminology and random attempts at humor. The hands-on learning parts of the text--the exercises--are especially problematic. Sacrificing directness and clarity for funniness and off-beat charm, the exercises are full of "problem" sentences that are so strangely constructed, it's difficult for one to know how to correct them with any precision or confidence (and the answer keys are not very reassuring). This book will be of little use to advanced English speakers/writers, and it's hard to imagine that it could give most beginners anything more than a hazy understanding of English language mechanics and grammar rules, the correct terminology for which they'll have learn later, elsewhere.
