Even children can learn to diagram sentences using this book overflowing with examples and exercises.

Adult learners will appreciate the in-depth grammar explanations, the challenges of "Stories in the Park" and "100-Word Sentences." New to this edition is a 20-page introduction to tree diagrams. Click on the cover for details.

If you love to diagram, you'll welcome the challenges of this book. You will find, among other improvements, a "bare bones" diagram (lines only, no words) and a complete diagram (lines and words) of each sentence. Click on the cover for details.

Three of my books (Drawing Sentences, Diagramming Step by Step, and Unbekannt und Unbeachtet) can be ordered from Butler Books of Louisville and from Amazon.com. The books are less expensive at Amazon, but I make considerably more on orders from Butler Books. The other five books must be ordered directly from me. The process is this: 1) you email me at ermoutoux@juno.com stating which books you would like to order; 2) I respond with (confirmation of) the price of the books and my postal address; 3) you send me a check or money order for the books; 4) I send you the books (media-mail postage is included in the price of the books).
