The Perfect Baby Name
Learn to listen for the ideal name! The Perfect Baby Name is the first book of its kind-providing parents with a creative approach to selecting first and middle names that sound good with readers' surnames. A good combination of names is pleasing to the ear, easy to remember, and can help a child be popular and successful in life. Utilizing the techniques found in poetry and phonetics, parents will discover how to examine a surname by the sum of its parts-and match it with the perfect first name. With this unique new method, parents can choose the baby name that everyone is looking for: the perfect one! Here's how it works with the surname Green: Break down the sounds: G, R, long E, and N. These are the four different sounds (or phonemes) in that name. Now refer to those four different lists in the back of the book. The G list has names like Hugo and Morgan... The R list has Rex and Aurora... The E (long) list, Eli and Alicia... The N list, Nathaniel and Lindy... All of these names sound good with the surname Green, so now it's just a matter of personal preference. Readers can scan the lists for the name they like best and choose the perfect match!
The Book of Letters
'The Book of Letters' is an exciting new approach to examining the letters of the alphabet used for English, showing the reader that there are 'sounds' built into many letters that have been inherent for hundreds of years. There has been a lack of information regarding how to say words from text, and why we say words the way we do. The word example for example, has a sound between the consonants in the second syllable. Where does it come from? How do we say this word the way a native speaker would do? 'The Book of Letters' examines this, provides the answers and offers students of the language a method of learning to say them in an understandable way. It is different to any previously published available work in that it uses traditional sound representation combined with a simpler and more understandable system, to show sounds that have hitherto been ignored or at best poorly represented. The novelty here is that it approaches an academic subject, in a light-hearted readable style. The book covers every aspect of alphabet letters as written for English to include their history, shape, varieties, sounds, uses, and the consequence of joining one letter with another.
