Description
Combine Ogden Nash and Noah Webster and add a dash of John Bartlett, and you have For Better and for Verse, an engaging, amusing, entertaining, and educational collection of “vocabulary verse.” What is vocabulary verse? It is verse with a purpose, and that purpose is to have fun with words and language. Its purpose is to present words in the context of light verse – to let the verses highlight and celebrate, and sometimes even define the words. Its purpose is to engage, amuse, entertain and educate. Each word is accompanied by its pronunciation, definition, comments on its origin, relevant uses of the word in context from literature, and – best of all – an original verse lovingly and humorously created by author Susan Jones (aka Words’Worth).
