  A Grammar Series That Uses the Functional Approach
  
  KEY FEATURES 
  - Functional approach to grammar teaching, using exemplars to illustrate the usage before defining the structure and rules

  - Contemporary topics to inculcate 21-century skills amongst learners
  - Use of literature to help learners understand how grammar is used in text
  - A comprehension section comprising texts from different genres so that learners may relate grammar to different types of works produced in English
  - Phonics in Grades 1 and 2 to teach the very basis of language
  - Uniquely stylised illustrations
  - Activities such as puzzles, crosswords, word grids and games to aid the facilitator in using the concept of ‘flipped classroom’
  - Periodic tests to help the learners self-assess the acquisition of concepts
  - Digital component to cater to a technology-driven classroom
  
  DESCRIPTION: 
  My Blue Book of Grammar is a course that has been conceptualized and designed keeping in mind the increasingly dynamic role of the English language in today’s world. Especially in our country, where English serves as the lingua franca, a grammar course has to offer not only an exposition of the pedagogy but also the exhibition of the utility of that pedagogy. The aim of a grammar series should be to encourage the development of competency amongst learners, even though their proficiency levels may vary. While the level of exposure to English of all learners may be different, a grammar series should aid in the development of a certain level of confidence amongst the learners, with the end result being that they are able to converse without hesitation in English.

  This audiobook is narrated by an AI Voice.   
  What if the most important warrior in Japanese history was never supposed to be there? 
  Torn from his homeland on the shores of Mozambique, Zuberi thought his story was over. Enslaved by Portuguese raiders, forced into military service, shipwrecked on foreign shores—every twist of fate seemed designed to destroy him. 
  But destiny had other plans. 
  In feudal Japan, where honor is everything and outsiders are nothing, one man's courage will defy tradition, challenge an empire, and forge an alliance that history forgot to remember. 
  From the blood-soaked beaches of East Africa to the cherry blossom gardens of Kyoto, The Forgotten Warrior reveals the extraordinary true-to-life tale of how a Mozambican slave became a samurai legend—and how his choices shaped the course of two nations forever. 
  Some warriors are born to greatness. Others have greatness thrust upon them. 
  But the greatest warriors are forged in the fires of the impossible. 
  "A masterpiece of historical fiction that brings forgotten voices to vivid life."
