The best grammar book ever!
 
Hi!

The best grammar book ever devised for young learners but also very good for adults is the Round-up series (1-7) by Virginia Evans (Pearson Longman) from beginner to upper-intermediate. With simple, concise and clear rules, with enough exercises and lots of visual stimuli. The vocabulary in the exercises is well adjusted to the appropriate levels. I love it!

Yes, it �s great! I have No 1- 4 .

I also use

Raymond Murphy �s Essential Grammar in Use,  and English Grammar in Use ( Cambridge University Press ) - perfect explanation and nice practice

Swan & Walter The Good Grammar Book and How English works ( Oxford )

Kenna Bourke The Grammar Lab 1-3 ( Oxford )

Grammar Spectrum Series (1-3 ) ( Oxford)

I use a lot of grammar books but Murphy is No 1 for the levels I teach. And of course our ESL printables...Wink

 I also really like:
 
"Everything You Need to Know About English Homework" from Scholastic books.
 
I bought it for my daughter to help her in school (4th grade) and later, when I started teaching English Grammar to adults, I found it very helpful because it simplified many things, but it was accurate.
 
I think its target audience is 4th-6th grade native speakers of American English.  I made the company I now work for buy a copy for their library as well.
