Lighthearted but authoritative, An Apple A Day proves that old fashioned proverbs are as useful today as they ever were.
Caroline Taggart is the bestselling author of I Used to Know That and, in the same series, A Classical Education and An Apple a Day. She also co-wrote My Grammar and I (or should that be 'Me'?). Her other books include Her Ladyship's Guide to the Queen's English, The Book of English Place Names and The Book of London Place Names. She also appears frequently on radio and TV giving her opinion on such subjects as whether or not there should be an apostrophe in Druids Cross and, if so, where it should go.
Exploring well-known proverbs, their origins, meanings and
relevance to life today, this is a fun and fascinating book to dip
into, written by an author with a neat sense of humour
