Sobre IBD

In this third book in a series to help ESL learners, I concentrate on the type of homonyms that are multiple-meaning words like 'bat.' There are thousands of them, but I chose the most interesting ones. I included the pronunciation in what I hope is an easy way to understand. This book is for people who already know some English and want to improve, as well as for people who just love the English language.
