Synopsis:
Words are everywhere. But do you know where your favorite words come from? Maybe they plop to the ground from high up in the sky! Or maybe workers piece them together in big factories. Or maybe they come from a one-of-a-kind word-maker . . . but who could that be? Vivid letter-filled illustrations explore imaginative ways words are made as this book shares the secret to creating new words.
About the Authors:
Jeff Zwiers works for Stanford University as a teacher trainer. He is fascinated by how language works and has a passion for helping children's language abilities grow in leaps and bounds. He has two very active children who are creating new words every day.
Sr. Reny is the name of the creative studio used by the Spanish illustrator and designer Javier Ramírez, (Vigo,1987). When he was little, he got to know urban culture and began to express himself through graffiti. Inspired by this culture he decided to study illustration and graphic design. Later on, he developed his activity in advertising agencies and the textile sector until he decided to change his direction and focus on what he always wanted, illustration. Today he works for many brands in advertising campaigns, packaging, editorial publications and many different projects reflecting their ideas.
