Historia
With dazzling wit and astonishing insight, Bill Bryson - the acclaimed author of The Lost Continent - brilliantly explores the remarkable history, eccentricities, resilience, and sheer fun of the English language. From the first descent of the larynx into the throat (why you can talk but your dog can't) to the fine lost art of swearing, Bryson tells the fascinating, often uproarious story of an inadequate, second-rate tongue of peasants that developed into one of the world's largest growth industries.

Historia
"If Shakespeare were alive today, he'd sound like an American." "English accents are the sexiest." "Americans have ruined the English language." "Technology means everyone will have to speak the same English." Such claims about the English language are often repeated but rarely examined. Professor Lynne Murphy is on the linguistic front line. In The Prodigal Tongue she explores the fiction and reality of the special relationship between British and American English.

Short forms of writing have always existed - from ship logs and telegrams to prayers and haikus. But in this ever-changing Internet age, short-form writing has become an essential skill.

As we use the Web for social networking, shopping, and news, we leave a personal trail. These days, linger over a Web page selling lamps, and they will turn up at the advertising margins as you move around the Internet, reminding you, tempting you to make that purchase. Search engines such as Google can now look deep into the data on the Web to pull out instances of the words you are looking for. And there are pages that collect and assess information to give you a snapshot of changing political opinion.

Think smart people are just born that way? Think again. Drawing on diverse studies of the mind, from psychology to linguistics, philosophy, and learning science, Art Markman, Ph.D., demonstrates the difference between "smart thinking" and raw intelligence, showing listeners how memory works, how to learn effectively, and how to use knowledge to get things done. He then introduces his own three-part formula for listeners to employ "smart thinking" in their daily lives.

Historia
Ovid's sensuous and witty poetry brings together a dazzling array of mythological tales, ingeniously linked by the idea of transformation - often as a result of love or lust - where men and women find themselves magically changed into new and sometimes extraordinary beings. Beginning with the creation of the world and ending with the deification of Augustus, Ovid interweaves many of the best-known myths and legends of Ancient Greece and Rome, including Daedalus and Icarus, Pyramus and Thisbe, Pygmalion, Perseus and Andromeda, and the fall of Troy.

Fun and useful!
This is an amazing book that can help your child if they are struggling in school or have trouble concentrating and preparing for tests. This particular book focuses on English for 6th, 7th and 8th grades. You'll find 300 practice questions about nouns, pronouns, verbs, adverbs, adjectives, and more. I love that kids can turn it into a game and really have fun with it, while learning and prepping for texts. A useful and fun educational tool for kids.

Test yourself on the English Language
This was a great test on the English Language, some of those 300 questions were tough and I fancy myself an academic. As for my 6th grader, this also seemed to be a challenge--a good one. I'd recommend this audiobook because of all the material it covers and that it is divided well into many different English topics.

Powerful tool!
I got this to listen to with my niece. But, I have to admit, I really enjoyed it too. It was nerdy fun for me to answer the questions along with her. We tore through the audiobook, and I think it's a really effective study tool. Great production and exceptional narrator also.

GREAT ONE!!
A very well-written and narrated audiobook for learning English, although it's specially designed for grades 6th to 8th, but I find it to be also very useful for adults who want to improve their language.
The author talks about:
- tenses
- prepositions
- conjunctions
The author makes the leaning fun inside this book by making questions and answers. you'll not get bored :)

Amazing!
This is a wonderful way for students to prep for exams! There is nothing worse than feeling unprepared. After listening to this you will feel ready to take on the challenge of a test. Over time we forget, this is also a good way for people like myself to relearn. You are able to study anywhere, pop in your earbuds and you're off to the races! I would highly recommend this listen!
