As yaks yak to one another and ducks duck rams who ram, Newbery Medalist Linda Sue Park presents a sprightly and comic introduction to a fun form of wordplay, homographs, as engaging animal characters enact verbs made from their names. “Young readers will love this hilarious, informative book.”—Booklist
At once funny and informative, Yaks Yak presents animals acting out the verbs made from their names. Illustrations rich in comic details show hogs hogging, slugs slugging, and other spirited creatures demonstrating homographs, words with different meanings that are spelled and pronounced the same. A chart listing the words, their meanings, and their history is included. Ideal for sharing, this book offers a delightful introduction to a fun form of wordplay.
