Show Thro Out Ye Old Dixionary: Try The Fenominal One London's Peter Wolfe, probably prob-ably not a bad speller himself, but the bad spellers' good guy, has had such phenomenal success suc-cess with his edition of "The The dictionary and books have and are being written to correct a common misconception that people are either beginners, competent com-petent or advanced in a subject. Awful Spellers Dictionary," that he's going to publish a series of Awful Books. THE AWFUL Dictionary, designed de-signed for those who spell so poorly they can't find words in an ordinary dictionary, was arranged ar-ranged phonetically. You look up a word the way it sounds, i.e., if you want to spell "phenomenal," you look up "fenominal." "SINCE I'M SO bad at so many things myself this is something some-thing very dear to my heart. So, I've commissioned a series of Awful Books designed specially for people who are bad at doing things," Wolfe admits. The first three, to be published in March, will be called: "The Awful Cook's Book," "The Awful Dressmaker's Book" and "The Awful Handyman's Book." "ALL THESE TELL you what not to do and what, if anything, you can do if you've already made an awful mess of something," some-thing," said Wolfe. |
