The book is split into a few big chunks. First, it starts with how letters and letter combinations sound—like when "ph" sounds like "f" or how vowels change depending on where they are. Then it jumps into how words are made—from base words and how adding beginnings (prefixes) or endings (suffixes) can change what a word means. Then comes a section to build up your word knowledge—learning different types of words, like opposites, same-meaning ones, or words that sound the same but mean different things.
One section even digs into dictionaries—not just how to look up a word, but how to really read what the dictionary says: pronunciation, meaning, word origin, and all that. There are short activities, puzzles, and review pages after every few lessons, so it's never boring. And there's an answer key at the back so you can check if you got stuff right.

This book lowkey made me like word stuff. It’s not all boring rules—it actually has cool tips that helped me spell and read better. The part where you break down words like "unhappiness" or "impossible" was kind of fun, and now I get what those chunks mean. I didn’t even know dictionaries had so much info until that chapter. The activities weren’t too hard, and the answer key saved me a few times. I actually finished this one without skipping pages lol.
