Paperback in Good (G) condition. Light signs of wear. Please see our guide to book conditions for more details. This collection of similes from A to Z is as zany as a chigger chase d around a stump. It includes rib-tickling folk expressions from Americans of all walks of life and all parts of the country in a bodacious tribute to both our country's diversity and pioneer heritage. There is a funny simile and uproarious illustration for each letter of the alphabet. Readers who are as curious as cats will enjoy the fascinating author's note that explores the origins of the expressions. A bibliography is included. Show more
