About this ebook

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.

  • Named an Outstanding Literary Work for Children by the NAACP
  • The perfect gift for curious little ones learning how to spell and new words
  • From the creator of The Dot, I Am Human, and Happy Dreamer comes a celebration of finding your own words -- and the impact you can have when you share them with the world.
  • "Celebrates individuality, self-expression, and the joys of being a dreamer... a liberating validation of dreaming as restorative, comforting, and powerful, while giving kids full license to be themselves" -- Publishers Weekly
