About this Book

Meet Shrewd Simon Short who sewed shoes; his sister Susie who sewed shirts; and Esau Wood who sawed wood (of course) … A whole crowd of cheerful characters to tangle and twist your tongues and make you muddle and splutter (or spuddle and mutter).

Here's a host of famous and less famous rhymes and phrases to frustrate and fascinate anyone from eight to eighty who can enunciate anything.

Is that all clear and straightforward? It shouldn't be - so try again and test your tongue and your patience.
