Enhanced descriptions from Syndetics:
In this Parents' Choice Gold Award-winning book, Selig collects words, ones that stir his heart ( Mama !) and ones that make him laugh ( giggle ). But what to do with so many luscious words? After helping a poet find the perfect words for his poem ( lozenge , lemon , and licorice ), he figures it out: His purpose is to spread the word to others. And so he begins to sprinkle , disburse , and broadcast them to people in need.
Selig, who loves words and copies them on pieces of paper that he carries with him, goes on a trip to discover his purpose.
