I love words! says Ava. Words can be tiny, prickly, big, and bright! In this delightful romp through one little girl's discovery of words, readers meet Ava--who asks: What was it like before I had words? Using a bright cheery palette, visual humor (and yes, even a big pile of words climbed by Ava), Grant Snider deftly follows the baby babbles, toddler questions, and little kid discoveries that are the hallmarks of how kids learn to use their words.
