Synopsis
Specification

Welcome to the Wonderful World of Words (WOW). This 20-part series of books aims to help children learn English grammar systematically and progressively, in a fun and meaningful way, through stories. Children will be able to understand how grammar works through the exciting tales of the characters from WOW Kingdom and Forest. The stories also help children learn vocabulary that is integrated with grammar, so they can use words accurately in sentences and help improve their writing.

Volumes 1–10 are suitable for children who are just starting to learn English, with topics that cover basic grammar skills, from nouns and verbs to pronouns and adverbs.

Volumes 11–20 are suitable for children who have completed Volumes 1–10 and have grasped the basics of grammar. They are now prepared to learn more concepts such as the past tense, action verbs, phrasal verbs and subject-verb-agreement.

What’s Inside

  • Imaginative stories that engage children, and help develop an interest in learning grammar
  • Adventures that encourage children to learn and understand grammar, and not just memorise rules
  • Games and activities to reinforce learning and check for understanding

Volume 17 – The Mess at Farmer Sam’s

In this volume, children learn about phrasal verbs. Through the stories, they learn important rules about phrasal verbs that are otherwise difficult to teach explicitly.
