Wordwise aims to enhance students' use of a wide range of vocabulary and to increase their understanding of the derivation and origin of words. The words in the book have been chosen to consolidate student knowledge of commonly used, mature vocabulary and to introduce more specialised vocabulary to extend students' repertoire of language. The book is divided into forty units with each unit focusing on one aspect of vocabulary development. The focus may be technical e.g. prefixes, homophones, possessives etc; or related to context e.g. investigation words, number words, Australian words, legal words etc. Wordwise is activity based to encourage students to use the words so that they can remember them more easily. Each unit consists of a list of keywords followed by activities using the keywords and related vocabulary focusing on: - meaning - use in context - word derivation and origin - spelling hints Answers for these activities are provided in the back of the book.

At first glance Yankee born Sheryl Vasso and Southerner Cammy Tidwell make an unlikely pair. Sheryl, who holds a Doctorate of Education from Immaculata University, has spent the last several years traveling the world as a professor of teachers enrolled in graduate studies. Currently, she is Chair of the Master of Science and Education Program at Philadelphia Biblical University and thrills to incorporate God's Word into every classroom discussion. After pursuing her own Master's of Combined Sciences from Mississippi College, Cammy found that marriage and motherhood took her out of the "professional world" for a while although she never once stopped studying, learning and teaching God's word. A close look, however, shows similarities far outweigh their differences. They are devoted to their families, and they both love words. It was through "words" that Sheryl and Cammy met when Cammy first heard Sheryl as a speaker. A few months later Sheryl was in the audience when Cammy spoke. Not long afterward, an incredible friendship began and a partnership was born. Now they share the speaking platform and their words in print at www.wordsofworth.com. Their first published work, Word Wise, is rooted in a difference they often discussed. While Sheryl has been reading a proverb a day for over twenty years, Cammy, also a faithful student of Scripture has just come to "appreciate" this book of wisdom. One thing for sure, both Sheryl and Cammy love words and desire to use them to glorify God in a wise way. (Both Sheryl and Cammy live in Newtown, PA) Word Wise connects King Solomon's wisdom found in the Old Testament book of Proverbs with the New Testament words of King Jesus. By bridging one King's wisdom with another King's words, you will find practical instruction for using words in the wisest way.

'A fool sees not the same tree that a wise man sees,' as William Blake so aptly put it.

It's a vast resource, but every one is a gem, from such knowledgeable souls as Hunter S Thompson, The Talmud, Dorothy Parker and Daffy Duck.With each quote handily placed within every possible category you could think of, and with more quotes in every genre than anywhere else, A WORD FROM THE WISE is a must for anyone who thinks they could do with knowing a little bit or a lot more.'A quotation at the right moment is like bread in a famine' The Talmud'Imagination is more important than knowledge' Albert Einstein'If you can count your money, you don't have a billion dollars' John Paul Getty'Violence is the repartee of the illiterate' George Bernard Shaw'Women who seek to be equal to men lack ambition' Timothy Leary'A narcissist is someone better-looking than you are' Gore Vidal

If you've ever wondered whether carrots improve your vision (they do) and why elephants have great memories, consult A Word to the Wise. You'll discover that it's never too late to learn from a proverb or an old wives' tale. This captivating book is a fascinating compilation of age-old expressions and customs, and its insights cover everything from health tips and kitchen tricks to gardening know-how and hints for predicting the weather. Folklorist Ruth Binney explains the truth behind such traditions as polishing windows with newspaper and blowing out birthday candles in a single breath. She also discusses whether classic adages are still relevant or, like eating oysters only in "R" months, their truths have faded with the passage of time. This charmingly illustrated volume of enduring wisdom makes a splendid keepsake as well as a fine gift.

It's no-holds-barred murder, in the latest page-turning Library Lover's Mystery from the New York Times bestselling author of Hitting the Books. Lindsey Norris is finally getting married to the man of her dreams--but it's not all roses for Briar Creek's beloved library director, as gardening enthusiast and town newcomer Aaron Grady gives the term "book lover" a whole new meaning. Inappropriate looks and unwelcome late-night visits to Lindsey's house have everyone from the crafternooners to Lindsey's fiancé, Sully, on edge. When Grady's dead body is found staged outside the library and all the clues point to Sully, Lindsey knows it's up to her to dig through the hidden chapters of Grady's previous life to find the real culprit and clear Sully's name. But becoming a thorn in the killer's side is not without its consequences, and the closer Lindsey gets to the truth, the more determined the murderer is to make her just a footnote.
