A "raucous trip through the peculiar corners of our alphabet. " ― The Fresh York Times

Let's obtain real―the English terminology is bizarre. Some sort of may be for the apple company, but it's also intended for aisle and aeons. Why does the phrase "gnat" start along with a G but the word "knot" doesn't focus on an N? It will not usually make sense, but don't let these types of rule-breaking silent words defeat you!

This whimsical, funky book from Raj Haldar (aka rapper Lushlife) transforms the conventional idea involving an alphabet publication on its head, poking fun with the most mischievous words in typically the English language and even demonstrating how to pronounce them. Thrilling informative for word nerds of all age groups!

Review

"This atypical alphabet book humorously details "mischievous words" that ignore the rules of phonetics plus spelling... Each letter's sample is illustrated with cartoony, full-color drawings followed simply by a comically absurd phrase highlighting other examples. "G is perfect for Gnocchi. / Typically the gnome yells, 'Waiter! There is a white gnat nibbling on my gnocchi! '... the concept will aid new readers and fresh English language learners conquer some of the more peculiar elements of our language. inches -
