- **Event Description**: Just in time for spelling bee season comes a hilarious journey through the centuries-long movement to simplify spelling in the English language. Planet Word welcomes best-selling author Gabe Henry for a lively presentation and audience Q&amp;A surrounding his new book Enough Is Enuf: Our Failed Attempts to Make English Easier to Spell.

In the comic annals of linguistic history, legions of rebel wordsmiths have died on the hill of spelling reform, risking their reputations to bring English into the realm of the rational. Enough Is Enuf is about them: Noah Webster, Theodore Roosevelt, Mark Twain, Ben Franklin, and many more who, for a time in their life, became fanatically occupied with writing thru instead of through, tho for though, laf for laugh, and so on.

Henry will discuss some of the quick-witted quirks and quips behind his book and will give attendees the chance to air out their spelling hits, misses, and gripes. This event will offer fun and practical guidance on our continued journey through the evolution of the English language.

Linguists, grammar enthusiasts, and word nerds alike will be entertained and enlightened by this refreshingly fun language history adventure!
