I've been writing since 1984, had my first book published in 1989 and have published another 55 books since then. I write mostly for teenage learners of English but also write a lot of short stories.
This is a great book for anyone learning the English language as it shows how some English speakers use a proverb to make a point about something.
The author has injected his own brand of humour into the pages, as well as giving clues (and some illustrations) to the proverb before producing the answer.
Well thought out - I loved it.
