Idiom Attack by Peter N. Liptack is a book that teaches it's readers alot about idioms. Peter N. Liptack wrote this book due to his desire to help people around the globe in their struggles with the untamed beauty of the English language. The book is in English and then translated in Korean language after each session. It contains about 300 frequently used North American idioms divided into 25 thematic chapters.

The sessions are divided into 3-steps training process:- Step 1. Learn the meaning of idioms through Chinese, Step 2. Confirm the use of idioms with the fill-in-the-blank section and Step 3. Practice the use of idioms by reading a story. The idioms are set in different topics to help the readers understand what they are supposed to learn. Idiom Attack maybe used as a classroom textbook, as a reference guide, as a supplement for other texts or for self-study. The book is structured in a way that each chapter can be studied independently of the others so that learners or teachers can easily access the subject that most needs attention. It's a well-suited read for both classroom setting and personal study.

Idiom Attack provides an excellent resource for a variety of applications in a user-friendly format. The book presents idioms in their most common form.

I loved the fact that by reading the book I was able to learn. I learned many idioms that I might have never known if not for the book. I enjoyed each class as it was filled with adventure and learning throughout. I might as well throw in some idioms just to prove a point. I'll kick off with just but a few, and if I decide to start off from scratch I might take a while and my intended message may not come to pass. By now most of you have witnessed that I've truly learned some idioms and mentioning this I'll have to draw to a close. I also enjoyed every exercise after each session, and the short stories were spectacular! When it comes to learning, nothing is a miss to me. I really had fun while learning. For sure, by now one might know there was nothing to dislike about it from me. To be honest, I wasn't able to find any errors as the book was well edited. Due to this, I award it a 4 out of 4 stars.

I would recommend this book to anyone that can read English and Korean language. It's a good fit and the learning is immense. What are you waiting for! Buckle up and join the others in this learning spree!
