The Laugh Stand

Brian Cleary makes up his own Tom Swifties (These are my underpants, Tom said briefly). He pokes fun at the inconsistency of the English language (And what about the ox? Youll find/The plural word is oxen./ But if 2 foxes do their wash, /Are foxen cleaning soxen?) He writes his own definitions (Benign: What you are after you be eight). He presents a dazzling display of pangrams, anagrams, and even word diagrams. Add Pat Sandys wryly humorous illustrations to the mixture, and this book is guaranteed laughter.Cleary, Brian P. is the author of 'The Laugh Stand', published 2008 under ISBN 9780822578499 and ISBN 0822578492.
