“A delightful language scrapbook.”
—Chicago Tribune
"Witty, sassy, and laugh-out-loud funny. Little convincingly demonstrates that, as she puts it, 'language is nothing less than a great adventure.' So is her book."
—Kitty Burns Florey, author of Sister Bernadette’s Barking Dog and Script & Scribble
“Charming anecdotes, witty sidebars, attractive illustrations . . . Little’s strong sense of humor never overwhelms her love of languages in this fascinating yet educational introduction to linguistics for a wide, pop-savvy audience.”
—Publisher’s Weekly
