From the back cover.
Roger the Pronoun wants to do the noun's job even though he knows that he'll always be just a pronoun. It's book five of the Meet the Parts of Speech series, in which the eight parts of speech are personified based on the roles they play in the sentence. Feeling that he's destined for more than just renaming nouns, Roger opens up his own store next to Nelson's Nouns. But when Nelson goes missing, Roger realizes that for life to mean anything at all, every pronoun has to have an antecedent. Clear and informative back matter includes textbook-style definitions and usage examples of subject and object pronouns, reflexive and intensive pronouns, and indefinite pronouns.
The Meet the Parts of Speech series uses the mechanics of character and story (plot, motivation, setting) to breathe life into what has traditionally been unengaging subject matter. The story-based approach combines traditional instruction with original narrative content, which appeals to different learning styles, increases both engagement and retention, and encourages students to make a deeper connection with the parts of speech and punctuation marks.
