I picked this up because I teach ESL and I needed some new ideas for class. I plowed through it in an hour. It's a great book for those who want to learn useful commonly used expressions, such as: "keep going," "no wonder," "held up," and "on me." The setup of the book is fantastic. First, it provides the phrase with a simple definition; secondly, it gives a (comic) illustration of how the phrase is to be used. Finally, it gives two or three more examples (sentences or dialogue) of how the phrase can be used in a more everyday situation. Additionally, after every 6 phrases, there is crossword puzzle for the reader to complete, so not only do you read, but you get tested on what you're learning. I suggest this book for anyone who wants to learn, or simply brush up, on commonly used phrases that you can use in the work place or in your daily life.

Book is not bad and contains useful expressions, there are also good examples and pictures illustrating these expressions. But I set 3 stars because 1) I think number of expressions is pretty small 2) some of expressions are really very basic, not sure that it worth to mention them at all
