365 Words Everyone Should Know (21)
From the tough to spell to the downright funny, these are the 365 words everyone should know!
Some words have strange double meanings. Others seem impossible to pronounce. Then there are the words that sound the same but mean something completely different when you change their spelling. And the ones with unusual stories behind them. Some are words you need at school, while others you can use at home or with friends. This book is packed with old words, new words, silly words, sporty words, political words, slang words, musical words, foodie words and loads, loads more.
"Holowaty deploys a chatty style and fun fact text boxes to lure readers. Airy design and copious, zany, often punning, black-and-white line sketches also help. ... Increasing vocabulary, spelling, and pronunciation proficiency is almost painless here; teachers and kids will find this book engaging."
