Critic Reviews

"Expanding on a topic introduced in Straight and Curvy, Meek and Nervy (2009), Cleary's latest entry in the Words are CATegorical series pairs a rhymed introduction to common prefixes and how they change the meanings of words... Budding wordsmiths in particular will benefit from this lively look at one of language's most versatile transformative tools." (Booklist)

"Whether it's for vocabulary building or helping students understand how to take apart a word to discover its meaning, Cleary and Goneau have the right touch." (Kirkus Reviews)
