Brian Cleary has done it again. Pich and Throw, Grasp and Know: What is a Synonym delights and intriques children of all ages with ingenous use of synonyms. Add this to the outstanding collection he has given us already. Thank you for making English grammar so much fun.

This book is a great book for teaching about synonyms. It really helps the students get a better understand of what it is.
Another great title in a well-written series June 8, 2006

Great stuff. Interesting word choices. Those crazy cartoon cats. I love how in this series of books which explains synonyms, homonyms, adverbs, pronouns, prepositions and more, Cleary can take the complex and make it simple, funny and teachable. He's also written one of my favorite books of poetry-- RAINBOW SOUP; ADVENTURES IN POETRY.

This book is a must for any school classroom and a fun read at home too. It is excellent for teaching what synonyms are and introducing great vocabulary words to boot. I highly recommend.

Energetically illustrated in a colorful cartoon style by Brian Gable, Pitch And Throw, Grasp And Know: What Is A Synonym? provides young readers with informative and entertaining explanations and illustrations of just what synonyms are. Also highly recommended for school and community library collections (and ideal for use by home schoolers) are the other outstanding and thoroughly "kid friendly' titles of the Carolrhoda Books series on the English language: Dearly, Nearly, Insincerely: What Is An Adverb?; Hairy, Scary, Ordinary: What Is An Adjective?; I And You And Don't Forget Who: What Is A Pronoun?; A Mink, A Fink, A Skating Rink: What Is A Noun?; To Root, To Toot, To Parachute: What Is A Verb?; Under, Over, By The Clover: What Is A Preposition.
