Synopsis

Jerome loves collecting words he hears, sees, or reads—short and sweet ones, two-syllable treats, and multisyllabic words that sound like little songs. One day, his collection scatters, leading him to discover the joy of sharing words with others. This story celebrates the magic of language and the connections it creates.
