3.0 out of 5 stars Interesting but occasionally confusing for a non-linguist, January 5, 2004
By 
Tolo (Perth, Western Australia) - See all my reviews
I read this book solely because I own a print of the painting shown on the cover... As curious as that may be, this book tells a lot about linguistics, why children say what they do and other somewhat useless explorations.

Although this is all interesting, some of it falls out of normal understanding, without explanation so you are left confused and reading that section over and over again.

Otherwise, it is, as it claims, a good starting to Linguistics.
