This valuable learning tool works like an illustrated handbook. Its goal is to provide graphic representations of the most difficult and confusing aspects of Russian grammar in order to make the material more understandable and therefore easier to memorize. The book uses concrete, everyday themes, such as money, food and animals, to represent abstract grammatical concepts, such as gender and case. This book can be used in a classroom setting or for individual study at a beginning level. This is the 12th edition of this popular resource.
