The Word Snoop

Meet the Word Snoop. She's dashing and daring and witty as can be - and no one knows more about the evolution of the English language than she does. Luckily, she's spilling her secrets in this gem of a book. From the first alphabet in 4000 BC, to anagrams, palindromes, and modern-day text messages, readers will learn all about the fascinating twists and turns our fair language has taken to become what it is today. With playful black-and-white illustrations, riddles to solve, and codes to break, The Word Snoop is definitive proof that words can spark the imagination and are anything but dull. This is a book for every aspiring writer, and every true reader.

This book offers innovative ways to use riddles to make reading fun. Many children equate reading with hard or "classic" books and librarians know that the sometimes the best way to entice reluctant readers is to offer books that prove to make them laugh. Riddles are both fun and easy to read, and can help to improve vocabulary, promote the local library as a fun place, encourage peer relations, and enhance oral reading.

The entertaining 101 Quick Thinking Games and Riddles is the teacher's answer for how to enliven curriculum, what to do when the lesson ends early, or what to do with the one child who always finishes first and wants another challenge. The games encourage concentration, patience, reasoning, an understanding of numbers and logic, and working with letters and words. They enhance memory skills, can be used anytime and are great for substitute teachers, free time, and broadening math or English lessons.
