Edith Baer s playful, yet thought provoking rhyming poem, coupled with Kyra Teis' colorful illustrations, captures the significance of words in everyday life. Although the couplets are easy to memorize and lucid, the underlying meaning conveys the role of language in building a human community, which connects, informs and nurtures through dialogue.

The beautiful illustrations show many different faces of children expressing their feelings, and how words affect all of us. With a gentle voice, the book encourages children to use words kindly and wisely . . . "for they can't be unsaid."
