The Art of Words, Hardback Book

The Art of Words Hardback

Illustrated by Joanna Bartel

Hardback

Description

Words are everywhere! Come on this lively adventure to learn more about how they can be shortened, extended, and even switched around.

Meet ugly words, colourful words, and words that just need a friend. The Art of Words is a unique, fun and interactive story about the magic of words.

Two children and their adorable dog are illustrated playfully interacting with letters and words, and discovering myriad word functions and capabilities.

Typography is a major feature and each page shows words that are scaled, coloured, and positioned to enhance their meaning and reflect the interplay of their verbal and visual aspects. At only 100 words, this 'language through adventure' book is intended to excite young children about language, especially the joy of words and their capabilities.

Visually, it depicts an imaginative natural world with abundant greenery, stars, animals and flowers, and children engaging in sports, adventure and STEM!

The illustrations aim to embrace and depict diversity in gender and race and cater to varied literacy levels.

The font choices are simple and clear, to ensure beginning readers can engage confidently. Children, parents, carers and teachers alike will delight in this quirky celebration of the joy and power of words.

Readers will come to appreciate the joy of making stories from words, and will be reminded that even books that teach can be fun!
