From a New York Times bestselling author

and illustrator comes an inspiring picture book about the

power of words.

Some people collect stamps. Some people collect coins.

Some people collect art. And Jerome? Jerome collected words .

In this illustrated picture book from Peter

H. Reynolds, a little boy discovers the magic of the words

all around him – short and sweet words, complicated words, words

that stand out.

But one day his carefully curated collection of words gets messy,

and that’s when Jerome discovers that words that connect,

transform and empower.

So Jerome starts using his words, and that’s when they become

powerful.
