Hiller has written 60 poems illustrated by Freeman that briefly talk about the idiosyncrasies of the American English language. Each poem is very short – giving just a framework for a further discussion of each peculiarity. Because of this, it is more for a dedicated teacher to use as a lesson introduction, rather than for a student to read on their own.
