This is the first book ever, that an author thought to personify words. Not their meanings, or spellings, but their feelings and emotions. He captured their lives perfectly! Not only was "the word" such a relatable character to read, but every time he made move or every time I flipped the page, I was immediately entranced. And besides the first look, the cover is amazing! You can see the detail that went into every word and the silhouette of the old man. I just wish there was more pages to read!
