About this book

Zachary Zwicker finds himself in the mysterious land of Zyxland where the alphabet is recited backwards and using words that begin with letters at the beginning of the alphabet are forbidden. Zachary has to answer questions about various things while avoiding the use of the first letters of the alphabet if he has any hope of getting home to America. Humorous and a bit of a puzzle book as Zachary has to guess at the answers to the questions without using certain letters. A lot of fun.
