The 50 pet peeves in this practical book were those mentioned most often by 125 English teachers from across the country.
Just a few of the topics:
- spelling a lot as one word
- writing could of instead of could have
- mixing up your and you're
The short, sensible explanations and exercises can help anyone learn to avoid common writing errors.
The book includes instructions for a very effective lesson called the “Aggravate Your English Teacher” contest.
