The Weighty Word Book by Paul M. Levitt, Hardcover | Indigo Chapters

[The Weighty Word Book] will appeal to kids who want to sound as smart as they are. It offers a clever, funny way to introduce new words into the vocabulary. . . . There's one word for every letter of the alphabet-wait until you see what they do with dogmatic, juxtapose and zealot."-The Gazette (Colorado Springs, Colorado) "Each of these twenty-six short stories takes an elaborate, circuitous path that leads to a 'weighty' one-word punch line. . . . It's a creative and humorous approach to vocabulary building, and a natural lead in to having students create their own tall tales with multisyllabic conclusions."-School Library Journal | The Weighty Word Book by Paul M.
