Dearly, Nearly, Insincerely-Picture Book #4

Early, Nearly, Insincerely
 
Author: Brian P. Clearly
Illustrator: Brian Gable
Publisher: Carolrhoda Books/Minneapolis 2003

Genre: Picture Book, Poetry
Themes: Adverbs, learning
Main Characters: Adverbs
Summary:
          Adverbs don’t have to be a taunting lesson to teach.  This book colorfully shows how to identify and use an adverb.  There are funny lines such as, “Always eat cookies, and never eat pine.  Sometimes I’m nervous, but usually I’m fine.  You have to see the hilarious brightly colored pictures that range from vampire cats to mad scientists.  If the rhymes on these pages don’t teach the lesson, then the pictures definitely will.
