Illustrated and musical grammar?
In the year 2000 I was hired by G.A. Sullivan, which has since been absorbed into Avanade. On my first day of work I was presented with the employee manual, some paperwork and a copy of “The Elements of Style, 4th ed. " by Stunk and White. I was told the owner of the company (Greg Sullivan) was a stickler for grammar and spelling in all correspondence (reports, presentations, emails, etc). Even Nino has talked about his copy of the grammar bible. On the way to work this morning I heard a story on NPR’s Morning Edition about someone actually illustrating this manual of English. I thought, “how odd”. They described some of the pictures that went with the sentences the book uses for examples and I’d have to say that it sounds like a good idea when used for teaching younger kids grammar. But someone has also created a musical interpretation of the book. Now this is truly odd. As for me…I’m not even sure I know where my copy is…but it’s around somewhere. I’d rather just have the small little paperback (I guess it would help if I used it from time to time).
