The job of an editor in a publishing house is the dullest, hardest, most exciting, exasperating, and rewarding of perhaps any job in the world.—John Hall Wheelock

Schoolhouse Rock Grammar: Rufus Xavier Sarsaparilla
Do you need a proofreader for your manuscript? Our staff may be reached at editor@compassrose.com.
Schoolhouse Rock! is a series of 46 educational short films featuring songs about schoolhouse topics, including grammar, science, economics, history, and politics. Originally conceived by Thomas G. Yohe in 1972, the shorts were broadcast on the ABC television network between 1973 and 1986; they were then broadcast infrequently during the 1990s and 2000s. An additional short, “I’m Gonna Send Your Vote To College,” was created for the 30th anniversary video release.
The Grammar Rock collection includes: Unpack Your Adjectives; Lolly, Lolly, Lolly, Get Your Adverbs Here; Conjunction Junction; Interjections!; Rufus Xavier Sarsaparilla; Verb: That’s What’s Happening; A Noun Is A Person, Place Or Thing; Busy Prepositions; and The Tale of Mr. Morton. The entire collection of Schoolhouse Rock! videos is available on DVD.
