About the book
This book is a playground where you can come and play with words. Language is so fun to mess with and tongue twisters are the ultimate in word games.
Classic tongue twisters are highlighted such as Peter Piper picked a peck of pickled peppers, How much wood would a woodchuck chuck, She sells sea shells, Betty Botter bought some butter, and a Tutor who tooted a flute tried to tutor two tooters to toot, just to name a few.
Each tongue twister is featured on a two page spread with delightful illustrations to accompany the text. I learned a few new ones myself and giggled as I tried to read them quickly. I must admit that stumbled a few times but hey that's what makes them so much fun and encourages you to read them again and again to get them right! The real fun is when you increase your reading speed and try not to trip up.
Kids will love the challenge of pronouncing each word correctly and celebrating when the words flow properly thus conquering their quest for perfection. I dare you to wrap your tongue around these word beauties and master the art of reading tongue twisters out loud to someone! I highly recommend this book. Long live tongue twisters!
