Sharpen your pencils, all you grammarians out there: Kitty Burns Florey challenges your diagramming skills with this truly quirky treatise on what may well be a lost art. (Florey was taught by her sixth-grade teacher, Sister Bernadette; you may have had an equally demanding instructor somewhere in your past.) In addition to discussing the history of the "lost art" and sharing her own childhood experiences with it, the author digs into literature for long, complicated examples to diagram. She thinks it's fun. If you do, too, take a trip down memory lane—and test your abilities—with Sister Bernadette's Barking Dog.
