How crazy would it be if it were REALLY raining cats and dogs? Did it REALLY cost an arm and a leg? Figures of speech are used regularly in cultures all over the World; from every day conversation, to hard life lessons. They are so common in fact, that very few stop to ponder the absolutely goofy imagery that comes along with these figures of speech when taken literally! The Literally Illustrated Collection of Idioms, Metaphors and Euphemisms explores just that. With fun and colorful illustrations, and definitions for each of the figures of speech, this picture book is silly and smart, and sure to please the whole family!
