Review

A fun filled book of idioms based on body parts from head to toe. The book is jammed pack with common and not so common idioms. Each is illustrated with cartoon like characters demonstrating the meaning of what can often be confusing English sayings. The book would be appealing to many, including those just beginning to learn the English language. The humorous illustrations and cartoon like graphics will appeal to young readers. This will be a much appreciated book to school and classroom libraries.

Overall Book Score: very good
