Approaching English Grammer Through Songs

The idea of writing this book started after observing students (foreign language learners of English) suffering from the lack of actual daily-life situations in the English used in their grammar course. They usually separate the grammatical rules from the contexts in which they are used, and memorize them as a poem. Some beginner students translate these rules into their native languages and fall at the danger of transfer. As a result, most of these courses have created a great deal of difficulty to students at all levels of their language proficiency.

The Cat in the Hat and Other Dr Seuss Favorites (Audiobook)

This collection includes 12 audio books.

The all-star cast of readers–Kelsey Grammer, Dustin Hoffman, Walter Matthau, John Cleese, and others–promises an entertaining program. Nearly a dozen Seuss stories are read with nearly as many artistic approaches. Billy Crystal is over the top; John Cleese has impeccable comic timing; Ted Danson seems unimpressed by the Lorax. But Grammer comes across best. He gets the rhymes and delivers the verse with style. His energy, like Seuss’s, never flags and never seems forced.
