Summary: 5 Stars
A great book on sentence variety. Examples of stunning sentences. Not a book to be overlooked. A must-have for any aspiring writer or student.
This book is the one I most consult on sentence variety. From much use, mine has gone dog-eared and well-thumbed.
If you love this book, then you will really love the other books, those of the below:
The first three MUST-SEE books by by Don Killgallon.
1. "Sentence Composing for High School: A Worktext on Sentence Variety and Maturity."
2. "Sentence Composing for College: A Worktext on Sentence Variety and Maturity"
3. "Grammar for High School: A Sentence-Composing Approach"
All these first three books above are the must-haves for all aspiring writers and students. They all teach sentence variety and has examples of stunning sentences.

4. "Sentence Combining: A Composing Book" by William Strong.
A lovely, charming book with lively examples of sentences. Great exercises for brainstorming - sentence-composing helps combat any Writer's Block as it did for me. I often bring this lightweight book with me into cafes. Great readings with my teas and lattes.
