| Publisher Description: Thirty-two humorous line drawings are used to illustrate thirty-one frequently used English language idioms. Since an idiom is an expression that can create confusion to learners of the English language by having both a figurative or a literal meaning, a ten-year-old boy uses cartoon style drawings to depict the literal meanings of English idioms in a humorous way to illustrate the concepts of formulaic language and figurative meanings. |
