This book is for scrabble players & lovers of words. The author loves playing the on-line game "Words With Friends" (I'm also totally hooked on WWF scrabble).
I tested the 2 letter words using the iphone/ipad game & they work! The game accepts them as valid dictionary words.
Some are common knowledge & others are a little more obscure. For each 2 letter word, Stepin Merritt (a professional singer/songwriter) has written a rhyming poem and each word also has a fun illustration by Roz Chast.
A show more great reference book for scrabble players, whether you play on-line or using the traditional board. show less
Cute, but not all that impressive. There were a few poems I really liked but I mostly felt meh.
Hilarious poems about two letter words. The illustrations make it!
