K-3Words Are Categorical series.
Illustrated by
Brian Gable.
"Adjectives are words like yellow, / sleeping, slumping, somewhat mellow." Rhyming text attempts to explain what an adjective is, mostly by providing a wide range of random examples; each adjective is set in colorful type to distinguish it from other words in the sentence. As usual, the series's zany cartoons starring goofy large-nose cats illustrate and (sometimes) help explain the text.
