The contents consist of clever typographic illustrations of a variety of word play. I've put my copy in the guest bathroom, as it is exactly the kind of book which invites both a rapid flip through and a close study of a single page. ( ) This book: - paints the picture of how critical language is to all aspects of life (how helping kids master language skills is incredibly important); - gives logical, sequential explanations of how kids learn and what gets in the way of learning; - has a prescription of ten practical, specific things to do at the end of each chapter, many of which have to do with developing a love for wordplay. aucune critique | ajouter une critique
In this quirky new title designer and typographer Teresa Monachino rounds up and breaks down a variety of unruly words: words lacking in integrity, misleading words that do not mean what they say, words that mean more than they say, words with inconsistent pronunciation or spellings that are just plain cruel! Using striking and witty graphic design the author demands answers to such troublesome questions as, why is abbreviation such a long word, does monosyllabic really need five syllables and why is lisp so hard to say if you have one?
