I love this book and the series that they have. It tells how to use a pronoun in fun way that kids like and remember. Can pull examples from the book and put in the classroom.

I love this book! Not only does it have a cute story line, but it also has excellent examples on how to use pronouns. It would be great to read to the students when introducing pronouns.
