This is a poetic look at how words are used. Portrayed in descriptive language and clever pictures, word meanings and uses are shown in unusual ways on every page. 

A visual treat, with so much meaning embedded in the text and illustrations. This book could be used to enhance a variety of language lessons, from vocabulary to creative writing. It is artfully put together in a way that stimulates the reader into thinking about words, their meanings, and their power.
