Brian Gable is the illustrator of many of the Words Are CATegorical ® books, as well as the Make Me Laugh joke books and the Math Is CATegorical ® series. Mr. Gable lives with his children in Toronto, Canada, where he also works as a political cartoonist for the Globe and Mail newspaper.
This colorful book offers information about conjunctions and examples of how they work, all in easy-to-read rhymes, beginning with, Conjunctions are connecting words like but or and or or. Printed in color, each conjunction stands out from the other, black words in the text. Meanwhile, the cartoon-style artwork depicts brightly colored, catlike creatures in human dress dramatizing a variety of situations. The high-energy illustrations rev up the comic intensity of the lightly humorous verse and promise to engage children in the subject. Though the Words Are CATegorical series has tackled some topics (nouns, verbs, adverbs, adjectives) more than once, this is its first book presenting conjunctions. An amusing addition to classroom lessons on parts of speech. Grades 2-4. --Carolyn Phelan
