SAID has always been an important part of the conversation at Hayward Elementary School - until the day he is shocked to learn he has fallen out of favor with the older students. Dubbed a boring word, SAID is pushed into an early retirement, as the students expand their vocabulary and identify more precise words. When three of the new words are elected to officially take SAID's place, he must endure the humiliation of a retirement party. But before he fades into the abyss of bland expressions, a surprise job offer could change his fate. A witty and wildly entertaining lesson on vocabulary, SAID's Retirement Party is a perfect companion text for teachers to use when introducing word choice during writing instruction and a delightful read for students and parents.
