A New York Times Bestseller!
A "raucous trip through the odd corners of our alphabet." --The New
York Times
Let's get real--the English language is bizarre. A might be for apple,
but it's also for aisle and aeons. Why does the word "gnat" start with a
G but the word "knot" doesn't start with an N? It doesn't always make
sense, but don't let these rule-breaking silent letters defeat you!
This whimsical, funky book from Raj Haldar (aka rapper Lushlife) turns
the traditional idea of an alphabet book on its head, poking fun at the
most mischievous words in the English language and demonstrating how to
pronounce them. Fun and informative for word nerds of all ages!
