Words

by Lora Rozler

In this emotional and highly visual picture book, a lonely letter sets off on a journey to find meaning. As it encounters various letter combinations, it is confronted by two distinct paths and must make an important choice.

Readers of all ages will be captivated by this simple, yet high concept, rich story that explores universal themes of discovery, relationships and the need to belong, with an underlying message about bullying.

Both timeless and original, Words is an evocative tale about how letters become words and words create meaning - meaning which could ultimately build or destroy.

Reviews

[Tracy Schillemore · Rating 3 out of 5]

Could be useful when teaching word choice or an anti-hate lesson.

[Jasmine · Rating 5 out of 5]

Love love love this book and how deep readers can dig into it. It can be used in younger grades to teach letter concepts and kindness, and in older grades to talk about inclusion and friendship. Highly recommended.
