True story! instead of being a boring grammar lesson, homonyms are fun, and even worthy of a game to continue the fun once you turn the last page with this charming picture book take.
Where do You Look?
by Marthe Jocelyn
Tundra Books
ISBN: 978 1 7704 9376 6
A pleasing square format and fun paper-collage illustrations filled with details give this book a bright and playful feel that matches well with the text, which turns learning into a game. For several examples of homonyms, Jocelyn asks us where we look for something.
Where do you look for a tongue? In a shoe? Or in your mouth?
It’s a great introduction to the idea that some word may have different meanings, even when they are spelled the same, and is simple enough in its presentation to appeal to even the very young. With such a light-hearted approach, it’s easy to imagine wanting to dream up more examples together!
