Logan Quester is being pun-ished for his unruly behavior in the library! "Every time I opened my mouth and said more than two or three words, a joke came out. No, not a joke. Worse than a joke - a pun. And people seemed to hate puns. They might laugh, but after they laughed, they groaned." Logan has three days to gather real world examples of wacky word combos or he will be doomed to a pun-filled existence. Can you think of an example of an oxymoron, an anagram or a palindrome to help Logan escape a future of never-ending puns?

This is a great book! It was a quick read, but not necessarily that easy. The book is full of fun plays on words. It is a really neat way to look at language and all the magic behind it. Logan speaks only in puns after being punished by an old man in the local library. To break the curse he must complete three quests.
ReplyDeleteHere are my ideas for Logan:
Oxymoron-crash landing
Anagram-the classroom=the school master
Palindrome- never odd or even
Good luck Logan and good luck readers!
This was a great book. I couldn't put the book down. I felt bad for Logan because know one seemed to like him. Here are some excamples for Logan so he can un-punish himself
ReplyDeleteOxymoron-Only choice and pretty ugly
Anagram-Dirty room and The classroom
Palindrome-Don't nod and To bad-I hid a book
