What a fun book! The only book I know in which the author reminisces fondly about diagramming sentences in middle school back in the day. It's an entertaining book, not a book teaching you how to diagram. Actually, I had no idea kids these days don't diagram sentences (except in a few rare schools) because I did it when I was in school. I diagrammed badly. I remember nothing of it, but I remember hating it.

I did not hate this book. I had a good time with it and now I wished I had paid more attention to the lessons. I learned how much Gertrude Stein loved diagramming - and try to diagram one of her sentences! The author talks about the style of many famous writers not to mention gives us a history of the lost art of diagramming.

I recommend this book if you have any interest in grammar and would like something light-hearted. This book can be read in an afternoon.
