My father passed away this fall and this was a gift from our employees. My husband and I, along with my brother continue to run the weekly newspaper that my dad had worked at since he was 16. We bought it from him 20 years ago but he maintained an “office” in our building until his death at 85. Newspaper, ink and words were in his blood ❤️💔 I can‘t wait to see and read this on our town‘s story walk.
The word collector is a great book to encourage students to expand their vocabulary knowledge and how to apply it to every day life.
An element of design that I noticed in this book dealt with the composition. Throughout the story, the illustrator displays Jerome's book of words and the categories that they fall into. One page dealt with shot words, two-syllable words, multi-syllable words, etc. It also shows how he shared his knowledge with others as well.
Moved to a smaller house (near peaceful sea & woods) so have to sort & store son‘s books in bookcases in different rooms. Realize how blessed we are that family give us books & that we can buy books for our son. #blessed #booksarebestgifts

He picks up new words everywhere has goes, but he does not only want them for himself. Jerome wants to share his collection with all children! This vocabulary rich picture book would be good for RA. The reading may be slightly over what the students can read on their own, so this is the perfect strategy.
