The Word Collector

In this illustrated picture book, a little boy discovers the magic
of the words all around him -- short and sweet words, two-syllable
treats, and multisyllable words that sound like little songs.
Words that connect, transform and empower.

Reach for your own words, tell the world who you are, and how
you will make it better.
