P is for pterodactyl : the worst alphabet book ever : all the letters that misbehave and make words nearly impossible to pronounce / by Haldar, Raj.; Carpenter, Chris(Christopher James); Beddia, Maria.;
Turning the traditional idea of an alphabet book on its head, P is for Pterodactyl is perfect for anyone who has ever been stumped by silent letters or confused by absurd homophones. This whimsical, unique book takes silent letter entries like "K is for Knight" a step further with "The noble knight's knife nicked the knave's 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."Ages 4 and up.LSC

Read by Zak Morgan.Let's get real--the English language is bizarre. A might be for apple, but it's also for aisle and aeons.

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!Ages 4-8.P-3.

Enough Is Enuf : Our Failed Attempts to Make English Easier to Spell. by Henry, Gabe.;
Why does the G in George sound different from the G in gorge? Why does C begin both case and cease? Anyone who has ever had to write in English has, at one time or another, struggled with its spelling. So why do we continue to use it? 'Enough is Enuf' is a brief and humorous 500-year history of the Simplified Spelling Movement from advocates like Ben Franklin, C. S. Lewis, and Mark Twain, to the natural simplification of spelling in texts and on Twitter.Library Bound Incorporated
