Unwrapping Some Illustrations
The Book
This is such a fun book. I heartily endorse anything to do with exploring and learning more about our awesome language in a non-stressful way. Kids ( and adults ) will delight in expanding their vocabulary in a playful manner as they turn from page to page. "Wild Wacky Words" is a celebration of new word finds!
The book invites kids into a word game. It uses colours and images to lock in the meaning of the words so they will not be forgotten. What a great learning tool.... fun ....who knew?
The author includes a phonetic pronunciation guide that will prove very helpful if words are totally foreign to the reader and a dictionary at the end. All-in-all the illustrations are wonderful and this poetic book is a perfect way to take the scariness out of tackling unknown words and will help build confidence that those words can be conquered.
Kids will discover that words are informative and entertaining too. The book encourages wordplay and the love of language. I highly recommend this book and suggest it be included in classrooms and elementary school libraries. The book is truly supercalifragilisticexpialidocious!
P.S. Google: Find the longest words in the English dictionary. It's a fun thing to do. Enjoy!
Thanks to NetGalley and the publisher for the advanced copy in exchange for an honest review.

About the Illustrator
My freelance career has been most notably illustration involving Children's books, Editorial and Advertising. Humor is a fundamental element in my work as well as designing a cohesive narrative for books. However, humor is not involved with a recent large scale ongoing project for Pandia press which I am involved in. I illustrated an immersive study history book for elementary-age children. This History Quest series places the students in a time machine as if they personally met historical figures.
I find collaboration has just as much reward as the art itself. The samples I have chosen on my profile are indicative of that collaboration with editor and art director.
