 Boring February 28, 2002
4 out of 5 found this review helpful
For me, the book just doesn't flow comfortably. It seems to be a curious mix of triviality and abstruseness. It's not an academic kind of book, but somehow it reminds me of all the boring English teachers I had in school. Maybe it's the small type and compactness. Perhaps it's the bland layout of the text. The contents are accurate enough, but the tutorial explanations seem ---ironically --- ponderously written and the exercises are really boring. It's cheap enough, I suppose, and if one's writing is in desperate need of help, it might be useful to buy it. Truly though, "thirty minutes a day" might be me more time than one is willing to put into it. Don't even consider buying it for a normal teen or preteen. An adult might better tolerate its boring format. There are probably other, equally inexpensive, sentence writing books that are more interesting.
Help your sentences communicate what you want to say! August 27, 2000

"Developing solid writing skills is not a matter of luck; it's a matter of hard work and practice," states Dianna Campbell, author of Better Sentence-Writing in 30 Minutes a Day. There are a lot of writing and grammar books available in the English language; this example is a superior approach, with a workbook format included in the study and practice of sharpening each sentence into a clear, respectable means of communication. A number of people struggle with creating interesting, yet grammatically true sentences and paragraphs. This tool offers instruction, numerous interesting samples to visualize excellent sentences, and the work that is needed to internalize the components of good sentence writing. Even if you only have 5 minutes a day for developing your writing skills, this is the book that will guide you to becoming a superior sentence writer.
