This is a clever word picture book introducing children to “homonyms.” Homonyms are words that are spelled alike and sound alike but have different meanings. The book is filled with vibrant,  lively, cartoon like illustrations of various kinds of animals engaged in playing a variety of sports. Often two homonyms are used in a single sentence, thus making it a bit easier for children to understand the difference in the meanings of the two words – which are spelled alike and sound alike!

Good book to use for teaching a “homonyms” lesson.”
