The new revised edition of Lidia Stanton’s bestselling book of cartoons demystifying over 200 of the most difficult spellings, fully adapted for a US readership. The book is structured around confusing pairs of words, such as homophones or words that ‘go together’, tricky everyday words and tricky academic words, with memorable illustrations on every page to help you connect the word’s meaning and graphical features with its spelling pattern.
This is not a traditional spelling book, but a resource that will really get you thinking, and laughing out loud. This guide encourages active learning and recollection, breaking away from repetitive methods such as ‘look, cover, write, check’, enabling you to effortlessly recall and identify once-confusing spelling patterns.
