Haldar, Raj,


Kirkus Review, September 2018. New York Times, October 2018. "'A' might be for apple, but it's also for 'aisle' and 'aeons.' Why does the word 'gnat' start with a 'G' but the word 'knot' doesn't start with an 'N?' It doesn't always make sense, but don't let these rule-breaking silent letters defeat you! This whimsical, funky book . . . turns the traditional idea of an alphabet book on its head, poking fun at the most mischievous words in the English language and demonstrating how to pronounce them"--Provided by publisher.
