ABOUT THE GIFT OF WORDS:An inspirational holiday story celebrating the power of words -- an epic follow-up to the New York Times bestselling classic The Word Collector by creative visionary Peter H. Reynolds.
So many words, strung together, shimmering and dreamy. So many people, connected, together, hopeful and united. And that was the power of the gift of words. A gift for all.
Jerome is looking forward to collecting words this holiday season! Words of hope, love, and joy to share with his loved ones. But as he begins his search, he discovers that inspirational words are hard to come by. In the end, Jerome finds a way to connect with his community and join together in sharing the greatest gift of all: the gift of words.
From our most celebrated, bestselling creator Peter H. Reynolds, comes an uplifting holiday tale about the power of the gift of words -- an important addition to the Word Collector collection, and the perfect way to celebrate the holiday season.
