One Word Pearl
by Nicole Groeneweg (Author) and Hazel Mitchell (Illustrator)

Booktalk: Pearl loves words. All kinds of words. Words make up songs, stories, poems . . . and what does a lover of words do? She collects them, of course!

But one day, most of Pearl’s words are blown away…

Snippet: Outside her room, safe from the storm, Pearl opened her chest. But the wind had only left a handful of words—not enough to tell a story, not enough to sing a song, and not enough to make a poem rhyme.

So Pearl decided she would use only one precious word at a time.
