Can you say the above sentence three times fast without your tongue getting twisted and mispronouncing some of the words? Its very difficult, but with practice you can do it! There are two kinds of tongue twisters in this book: short ones that should be said three times fast, and long ones that you should read once (if you can!). An example of a short tongue twister is Unique New York.

Just try to say that three times fast without making a mistake! Not that hard, right? But now say this one three times fast: Pad kid poured curd pulled cod. The above tongue twister may be the most difficult short tongue twister of all. It was developed by scientists at the Massachusetts Institute of Technology. With all the different sounds in just a few words, its a tricky one!

Neither way makes them any easier to say, though! Welcome to the wild, wonderful, wacky world of Totally Terrific Tongue Twisters!
