Word Smith, Private I, is back with another mystery story filled with alliterations, hyperboles, rhyming, similes, and idioms. Ben Brannoor enters Word Smith's office claiming that someone or something is stealing rhymes out of his greeting cards and replacing them with un-rhymes. Not only are rhymes stolen from greeting cards, but also from advertising slogans and song lyrics. Word Smith and Ben Brannoor work together to track down the rhyme thief. Illustrations support the text.
