MY FAVOURITE AUTHOR HAS PULLED OFF ANOTHER ENJOYABLE TITLE
I would give each Bill Bryson book that I have purchased " FIVE STARS" But for a moment I will confine my thoughts to MOTHER TONGUE I do wish that this book had been written seventy years ago when I was at school and learning English I marvel at Bill's writing skill and how he draws the reader into a particular volume Mother Tongue is no exception even for such an educational book the author blends fact with humorous anecdotes which makes the book even more appealing I commend this book wholeheartedly to all age groups as a hugely pleasant and easy readVerified purchase: YesCondition: Pre-owned
