Jon Scieszka: Hello, my name is Jon Scieszka, and it's often pronounced many different ways that aren't even close to that. The people who know how to pronounce it best actually are Polish because it is a Polish word. In Polish it actually means "path", like a path through the woods. And I have heard people mispronounce it in many wonderful ways, like Scieszka, Sch-skiska, Skazooka, or I love when people just freeze up and don't know what to say at all but it is Scieszka and it pretty much rhymes with Fresca.
