Word of the Week – I Digress

So, some of you may know that the word of the week is my homage to my tenure as a grammarian.



What if you want to raise a future grammarian? Try giving them the book: Ounce, Dice, Trice. This delightful book of nonsense words by Alastair Reid, with illustrations by Ben Shahn, introduces children to fun words such as: willow, whirr, spinnaker, galoshes, mugwump, crumb.
