Happy Friday Wolfpack! Did you know that a lipogram is type of constrained writing or word game in which a writer avoids using a particular letter or group of letters?
One notable example of a lipogram is the 1939 novel 'Gadsby' by Ernest Vincent Wright which is written without words that contain the letter E.
Try writing a lipogram in the comments!

Did you know, that the world’s smallest book is called 'Teeny Ted from Turnip Town' and is only 0.07 mm x 0.10 mm. Compare that to the head of a pin, which is 2 mm!
The book was published in a limited edition of 100 copies and requires a scanning electron microscope to read the text.

Happy Friday Wolfpack! Did you know that 'Of Mice and Men' by John Steinbeck was originally going to be titled: 'Something That Happened'.
Steinbeck’s original title echoed the events of the book being referred to as "something that happened". Steinbeck changed the title after reading Robert Burns's poem, "To a Mouse".
Which title do you like better?
