Usually I feature a number of items in my "Found In Books" posts, but this time my latest find warrants its own post. This piece of ephemera is double-sided. On the first side is a page from a grammar test, appropriately titled (from a bookseller's point of view), "Getting Words in the Right Order." I know I sometimes have trouble with that.
Our intrepid test-taker seems to have answered all questions on this page correctly, as the green check mark attests, but his total score is only 70% (remember, we have only one page of the test). Could you have answered this question: "What is a nominative absolute, and does it have to be edited?" Huh?
But it is on the reverse side of the test form that the true talents and skills of our student are revealed:
Sissies Rule!
