Remember reading this book as a young kid, and over time subconsciously imbibing good form in my written and spoken language despite not paying attention in school. Parents; do keep stuff like this lying around home, you never know what kids can pick up.

I love this book! As soon as I read the Capote reference, it completely won me over.

[Sulaiman A.Wahab · Rating 5 out of 5]

This book proves my feeling was right.

I mean I know there's something about language that changed, that it entered new level. You don't write 'Write Better, Speak Better' today right?

--- You Can Not Reading These Below (I Just Want Said The 1st Phrase Above And The Second Paragraph (Below) Just To Tell You A Secret) ---

And most average teachers are dumb enough to tell their students it was wrong and old gov management style/like was used and forced to use on students. Man I was standard 4 that time and every adult disagree with me except brilliant one (or when they were not at school. Hmm, wonder.. lol).

This book proves what I'm feeling is right. No wonder some said - 'School steal your child'. Lol

I liked the way people going to be more awesome! :)

A great reference. A bit dated, but covers the most important topics. Pity one doesn't find people who make any effort when writing an email. Quite atrocious.
