Have fun learning language!

What is a prefix? You'll find the answer inside this book—it's overflowing with prefixes. Brian P.

For easy identification, key prefixes appear in color and comical cats reinforce each idea.

Pre- and Re-, Mis- and Dis-: What Is a Prefix? turns traditional grammar lessons on end! Read and reread this book aloud and delight in the sense—and nonsense—of words.
