Purposely misspelled words

0 Hello,02br
00I'm writing a book with a title that I want to purposely misspell. Only one word it the title would be misspelled. Should I put it in single quotations, double quotations, or neither??? I don't want to look dumb, so I thought quotations might show that I do know the word is spelled wrong. Thank you for your time! Any advice is appreciated.0-

0 I remember seeing a book entitled 01i00Words Most Often Misspelled. 02i00On the cover, 01i00misspelled02i00 looked like it had originally been 01i00mispelled02i00 and another s had been added later, as if by a teacher. You could consider stealing that idea.02br

0There was a movie called 'The Pursuit of Happyness' with the 'y' instead of 'i', which should be the correct spelling. i.e 'Happiness' . It was spelt incorrectly as that phrase has a quite significant role in the movie. I guess this could also be the case in your book. 05002br
