 Outstanding picture book about adjectives. Published in 1989, it's not recent, but adjectives haven't changed since then. The rhyming text manages to convey a lot of information. Both the meter and the rhymes feel very natural. All the adjectives in the book are capitalized and appear in a larger font size so that they stand out from the rest of the text. Includes helpful visuals on comparatives and superlatives. Also introduces irregular adjectives. 
 The illustrations are stunning. Page layouts are superb as well. An excellent resource for children to learn grammar in a fun, non-threatening way. Part of Ruth Heller's World of Language nonfiction picture book series about the various parts of speech. Highly recommend.
