Watch the Watch: Fun with mini-stories, word conversions, alliteration and tongue twisters

Jim Ailor

Watch the Watch is an illustrated children's book. It is both fun and educational. It consists of mini-stories full of alliteration and tongue twisters that are based on word conversions (or zero-derivatives)-when a single word serves as two different parts of speech.

Watch the Watch targets 3 reading levels of children: 1) a non-reader who has fun finding the mystery bear on every page; 2) a young reader who is capable of reading the short heading on each page that introduces the word conversion; and 3) the advanced reader who is challenged by the alliteration and tongue twisters of the mini-story on each page. Siblings ages 4, 8 and 12 will enjoy reading Watch the Watch together.

A young reader can read alone as she sounds out the heading of each page and then examines the supportive and humorous illustrations. With headings like "Pick a Pick," "Floss with Floss," or "Boxes the Boxes," the child only needs to sound out one word to know the subject of that mini-story.
