A Collection of Irresistible Idioms & Illustrations to Tickle the Funny Bones of Young People Mildly amusing picture book illustrating the author's suggestions of how certain idiomatic expressions came to being. It also includes fairly accurate definitions of each phrase as well. I liked the primitive art done by the great-grandson of an American icon, but felt that the actual known source of some phrases should have been used instead of fanciful options. Fine for kids. This is an interesting book of idioms. It is very true to form and simply gives examples of idioms throughout the book and situations in which it may be used. I had my 8 year old son read the book to me and he wanted to read it 2 more times. It is quite funny and some of the idioms will make you laugh. I think it's a great way to explore/teach idioms without it being too formal. ingen anmeldelser | tilføj en anmeldelse
