Stop and Go, Yes and No: What Is an Antonym? (Words Are CATegorical ®)

These are the greatest books for elementary school teachers! My kids love them and we crack up as we read them for all the different grammar and math topics. I read them daily as I’m teaching grammar units and I swear they help the kids remembering the different parts of speech! They love the illustrations too. We always get a good giggle reading and looking at the illustrations!

This is such a fun way to introduce parts of speech without kids needing to stress about it, they can just sit back and have fun and learn. We love reading together and the kids have really enjoyed these, even before they can really understand the English lesson being taught... We have most of this series and would purchase them again in a heartbeat! They are not a curriculum... just a wonderful fun addition to teaching :-)

I thought these books a bit light on content until kiddo started interrupting me when we were doing school work with "It's an, it's an, it's an ANTONYM!" He was so excited he could barely get the word out. He quotes the books and points out examples. Contrast to the Ruth Heller grammar books, which are so glitzy, kiddo misses the words. This series seems to bore right into his brain. Give it a try!

My students love reading these books when learning about different grammar!

Children will have a great time reading this book too!

This whole series of books is absolutely wonderful, helping my daughter learn grammar disguised as humor. She has referred back to these books many times. I will always keep these books around! I very highly recommend.

Great read.

Great for first graders, its a story for them but teaches at the same time. The kids loved to read it
