Praise for Refreshing Grammar
Very simply the most useful book about grammar that you'll ever read. A thoughtful, easy to read, step-by-step guide to grammatically analysing text.
A must for English teachers, especially those teaching A Level English Language.
Refreshing Grammar is a godsend (isn't it?).
Perfect for A Level English Language teachers

It's brilliant.
Very highly recommended.
Brilliant, by a fantastic author.

Look for the auxiliary in the question tag!
Very easy to read, packed with lots of tips for teaching and using grammar creatively. A gem of a book!
