This whimsical, unique book takes silent letter entries like "K is for Knight" a step further with "The noble knights knife nicked the knaves knee." Lively illustrations provide context clues, and alliterative words help readers navigate text like "a bright white gnat is gnawing on my gnocchi" with ease. Everyone from early learners to grown-up grammarians will love this wacky book where "A is for Aisle" but "Y is definitely not for Why." ER -
