The Return of the Word Spy : A Funny and Fantastic Voyage into Language, Grammar and Beyond... Ursula Dubosarsky & Tohby Riddle (Penguin)I adored the first book and this one is just as much fun. I learnt more wordy information too in this books which is all about the joy of sharing the love of language.
Last time it as a discovery of the english langauge and espeically words. .. this time we venture with the Word Spy to discover language and grammar ... learning about it has never been this much fun!
Discover information about language; extinct languages, endangered languages, new languages and silent languages - there is even a braille alphabet that you can feel! And then there is grammar, and the explanation the meaning of verbs, adjectives, articles, conjuctions, prepositions and so much more. There is even information on obsolete words. And as with the Word Spy there are puzzles to solve, and this time twelve words to find - to make this even more fun!!!
This book is a delight with surprises at every page turn.
Enjoy....
