THE WORD COLLECTOR by Peter H. Reynolds
HARDCOVER
Author & Illustrator: Peter H. Reynolds
THE WORD COLLECTOR is a beautiful celebration of language, creativity, and the courage to share your voice - from the creator of The Dot and I Am Human. Some people collect stamps. Some collect coins. Some collect art. But Jerome collects words. He gathers them wherever he goes - short and sweet words, musical multisyllable words, words that make him feel curious, brave, or calm.
Jerome keeps his words carefully stored… until one day they spill out into the world. When he finally begins to share them, something wonderful happens. His words connect people, lift spirits, and remind everyone of the quiet power language holds.
Written and illustrated by Peter H. Reynolds, this gentle, inspiring story encourages young readers to notice words, treasure them, and use them thoughtfully.
A poetic celebration of language and self-expression, that encourages confidence in sharing thoughts and feelings, The Word Collector is a reassuring reminder that the right words - shared with care - can change the world.
