About

ABOUT THE BOOK
The Unknown Gnome from Nome - Fun with Homophones follows George, a lovable gnome who sets out to make new friends. His whimsical adventure combines colorful characters, clever wordplay and friendship with an engaging introduction to homophones - words that sound alike but have different spellings and meanings. The book is especially well suited for second- and third-grade classrooms and elementary school libraries.
AWARD RECOGNITION
The Unknown Gnome from Nome - Fun with Homophones has been named a finalist in the Moonbeam Children’s Book Awards and has earned third place and finalist recognition in the Four Seasons Book Awards.
