I'm pretty sure the book is called Flowers in the cemetery. Its a book that explains things like where words in the english language come from and why some languages are easier to learn than others

Could it be Accomodating Brocolli in the Cemetary: Or Why Can't Anybody Spell by Vivian Cook. This book's description from Amazon is "Accomodating Brocolli in the Cemetary is at once a celebration of spelling and a solace to anyone who has ever struggled with the arcane rules of the English language. As amusing as he is informative, Vivian Cook thrills the reader with more than a hundred entries -- from photographs of hilariously misspelled signs to quizzes best taken in private to schadenfreude-rich examples of spelling errors of literary greats -- that will tickle the inner spelling geek in every reader." If this is it, you can find it at Amazon.
