Choose the sentence with correctly presented pronoun case in a prepositional phrase:

• A. She gave the book to John and I.
• B. She gave the book to John and me.
• C. She gave the book to I and John.
• D. She gave the book to John and myself.

Answer: (B)

This question tests pronoun case after a preposition, especially when a compound object is present. When a pronoun comes after a preposition, you use the object form. With two items joined by and, both should be in the object form as well.

Here, the preposition is to, and its object is the whole phrase that follows: John and me. Using me keeps both parts in the proper object form, which is required after a preposition. Using I would put the pronoun in subject case, which isn’t correct after a preposition. Using myself is a reflexive/emphatic form and isn’t standard for a simple object of a preposition with another noun, so it’s not appropriate here.

So the sentence that uses to John and me follows the pronoun-case rules correctly.
