Painless Grammar, by Rebecca Elliott
Book written for middle and high schoolers, but its clear simplicity and humor has been appreciated by many adults.
The Elements of Style, by Strunk and White
This is an updated Kindle version of the classic book often quoted as the standard book on grammar and word usage. The Kindle version is only .99. Strunk’s original version, now in the public domain, can be freely downloaded from Project Gutenberg or viewed online in its entirety on at bartleby.com.
Eats, Shoots & Leaves, by Lynn Truss
I haven’t read this grammar book but have heard good things about it from many sources.
