Publisher's Synopsis
In Susan Lynn Zenker's adorable story, a little girl named Ashley wonders where words go after we say them. Are they still around us? Do they eat? Do they play? Why are they always trying to escape? And what can she do to capture her favorite words or sounds and make them stay?
The little girl's story is told in lyrical rhyming verse and is sure to delight all readers, old and young. You will be amazed by the whimsical drawings dpne by reknown illustrator Nacho L. Garcia Jr., long-time political cartoonist for the El Paso Times, El Paso, Texas. "It's almost like a litany or saga of a word. A lot of thinking went into this poem. I love it!" --Monique Swope, co-author of A Friend, A Bottle of Wine, A Cool Place to be Happy: The Life and Art of Monique Swope
