Book Reviews of 365 New Words-A-Year Page-A-Day Calendar 2008
Book Review: Wordsmith
Summary: 4 Stars
I really thought I was a wordsmith until I got this calendar. I haven't known any of the words since the beginning of the year but I'm having a ball learning. I also like that the word is used in a sentence to provide context. Also on the back of the page some history related to the word's use. A great calendar.
