Action words are verbs - those important words in the English Language without which no sentence is complete. Verbs form an important part of a child's vocabulary. They help children to talk about the things that people do and the things that happen around them.This book introduces children to 1000 of the more common verbs. It has been prepared with the three principal aims in mind:to enlarge the child's vocabulary of verbs;
to show the subtle differences between verbs that are similar in meaning, e.g. see, look, glare, stare;
to introduce the child to the meanings of useful phrasal verbs such as get away, get off, get on and get up.
