5.0 out of 5 stars Palindromania: More excellence from Jon Agee
This book is 112 pages of entertaining cartoons of palindromes. Jon Agee creates whimsical one to four panel stories in which all sentances are palindromes (the same forwards and backwards) and then illustrates them to bring them to life. If you enjoy palindromes, this is the perfect item for you.

3.0 out of 5 stars John Agee did not have a lot to work with here.
I love palindromes. This is probably the Jon Agee palindrome book I like the least. "Go Hang a Salami I'm a Lasagna Hog" and "So Many Dynamos" were a little more complex and more entertaining. I love Jon Agee's drawings but in "Palindromania" there was less good material to work from, I believe. Still fun to have and to share with others.

5.0 out of 5 stars A whimsical, fun gift for the English major, January 10, 2003
This review is from: Palindromania! (Hardcover)
Palindromes form different words when considered from left to right or right to left (e.g., dog/god). This zany collection provides words or phrases which read the same forward or backward, pairing the zany phrases with entertaining comic strip cartoons. A whimsical, fun gift for the English major.

5.0 out of 5 stars An expert guide to avoiding the traps and snares, February 9, 2004
This review is from: Palindromania! (Hardcover)
The English language is filled with quirks and puzzles. In Dictionary Of Troublesome Words, copy editor Bill Bryson provides the reader with an expert guide to avoiding the traps and snares of what is justifiably considered the most complicated and dominant languages of the world today. Bryson's A-Z dictionary clearly outlines some of the more common problems involved in using ordinary words such as 'either', future', or 'may well be'. Dictionary Of Troublesome Words is another browser's joyride in the proper pursuit of English and a welcome addition to personal, school, and community library reference collections.
