Inhaltsangabe
Writing should be fun! When you look for a topic, allow yourself to learn something old; especially if it turns out to be new.
In Jack and the Bean Stock, when the giant is chasing Jack trying to get back his goose that lays golden eggs, he screams, "Fee, Fie, Foe Fum!" Did you know that these are real English words?
The word Fum is derived from Chinese and it means "marvelous bird."
For fun I challenge myself to write a book using only single syllable words beginning with "F." All of the enclosed words are English. But it was very difficult to read and understand. That prompted me to add simple drawings.
It is my desire to help young writers seek the simplest correct word and to avoid trying to impress the reader with fancy vocabulary. After all writers should seek first to be understood, Only use a fancy word when absolutely necessary.
“Don’t use a five-dollar word when a fifty-cent word will do.” - Mark Twain

“It’s more fun to talk with someone who doesn’t use long, difficult words but rather short, easy words like, ‘What about lunch?’” - Winnie the Pooh
