Tongue twisters galore - read this straight through (no easy feat) with my preschool class. Whew! ( )

Excellent tongue-twister masterpiece. Fox in Socks seeks to humiliate Mr. Knox by giving him successively more difficult things to say, but ultimately Mr. Knox ends with his own mic drop.

I'm a glutton for linguistic punishment, so I love reading this book out loud to Lily. The only part I really have to slow down over are those darn brooms. "Bim brings Ben broom. Ben brings Bim broom." Brutal.

A guy rapping on YouTube shows off this glorious book without trying to read it as fast as possible. Maybe it's even better that way. After all, "This book is dangerous!" ( )

This book makes language really playful and creative. I would want this read to me every other night. ( )

As we mouth his refusals, we ourselves conform: we, readers of books aloud, have pronounced exactly the tongue-tying utterance that Knox declares himself unable, or unwilling, to say.
