Book Description Paperback. Condition: new. Paperback. This work presents a fascinating look into everyday proverbs, their origins, uses and why they actually make sense, or don't. It features all the well-worn phrases, from 'never judge a book by its cover' to 'a stitch in time saves nine'. Proverbs are short, well-known, pithy sayings that offer advice or words of encouragement and are used in everyday English without much thought ever being given to their meanings, or indeed, usefulness. Caroline Taggart explores the truth behind our favourite proverbs, their history and proves that they are as useful today as they ever were.
