Review: It is always fun to show off! Through amusing stories, the Weighty Word book introduced me to such words as "laxity", "coruscate", and "bifurcate". I now weave these words into sentences - people think that I am smarter than I actually am!

Review: This book transformed me into the life of a family party! We took turns reading the brief mystery stories while family members tried to unriddle the solution. Lots of fun!

Review: My very lucky story: Many years ago, before most cars had air bags, I read an article in the Springfield Republican about seat belt safety and the importance of putting young children in the back seat. The author recommended the back middle seat as the safest seat in the car. I immediately moved my young child from the front seat to the back middle and less than a week later, I was in a serious car accident. I truly believe that sitting in the back seat saved my child's life.
