the GRIPPING GAZETTE

What's it all about then?

Those irritating sprites, The Flitwizzits, have discovered my interest in finding out about stuff and have clearly decided to be a pain in the proverbial bottom.

 

They've come up with some infuriating  word-based riddles for me to solve! The little blighters. 

So, I have created The Gripping Gazette in my attempt to answer them!

I must begrudgingly admit that they're probably doing me a favour in getting me out of the house. 

Below is their initial note on the matter:

"Our world is shared with yours

We just don't go outdoors

Strange and complicated words

Are our lunch, dinner and dessert

There's no reason to fear

Our onomatopoeia

Through our timing of rhyming

We're experts at hiring

The devil's in the detail

We hope it's no travail

To solve each riddle we've picked you

(you've clearly not enough to do)

But we'll be nice and put in clues!"

The Gripping Gazette is a word-led magazine for kids aged around 7-12 (although anyone can read it if they want; I'm not going to stop them). There's a new issue roughly every quarter. So usually 4 each year.

Every issue of The Gripping Gazette is packed with around 75 pages of interesting stuff and is focused around world current affairs in an appropriate manner. I have a very questioning mind so I'll be finding out more about related matters that pique my interest along the way.

 

And the best part? You'll be learning new things without realising!

All this for just £4.50 per issue. No third-party adverts or filler, just things I hope you will find interesting!

A note for parent-folk.

Eastings provides word-led edutainment for children with a rough age range of 7-12. Through a fun and questioning approach we explore the worlds of lexicography and etymology with a focus on age-appropriate world current affairs. This is done through video shorts, and our quarterly publication; The Gripping Gazette, which is available for just £4.50 per issue! There are no third-party adverts anywhere in The Gripping Gazette, or when you watch videos directly on eastings.com. Finally, there is no AI, unless you're talking about vowels.
