bookbubBookbub.com is a website that tells you about free or inexpensive digital books – eBooks.

You can read these books on an eBook reader (such as Kindle or Nook).  But you can also read them on your phone, tablet, or computer – usually with the free Kindle App or Nook App.  If you have an iPhone or iPad, you can read many of these using your iBooks app.

stnt4

Never start a regular sentence with “is”.  (It’s okay to use “is” to start a question)
Use “it’s” instead.

Don’t say: 
Is a nice day.
Is easy to fix that.
Is nice to see you.

Say this:
It’s a nice day.
It’s easy to fix that.
It’s nice to see you.
