Book Worm (aka Bookworm) is a worm living inside the books in Bookland at Exclamation Point on Isle of Wonder. In fact, he is said to be one in a colony of bookworms.[1]

Background[]

He is the librarian and chief tax collector of the Isle of Wonder. He is the neighbor with Oxymoron, and Diphthong. He wanted to trade a rare book for items of grammar. Alexander brought him Dangling Participle in return for the book.

The Book Worm loves the books and his pets more than anything in the world. He's a literary fellow, but not unapproachable--he enjoys a good trade now and then.

Trades[]

Bookworm (or his friends) makes several authors to trade for the rare book these include;

  • Dangling participle
  • Itinerant clause
  • Marsh pig that does taxes
  • Purple fiddlewacker
  • Idiosyncrasy
  • Subordinate clause
  • Split infinitive
  • Fleeting moment
  • Falling arches
  • Regular abnormality
  • Prepositional phrase
