The keeper of the wild words
An A Mighty Girl 2020 Book of the Year
A touching tale of a grandmother and her granddaughter exploring and cherishing the natural world.
Words, the woods, and the world illuminate this quest to save the most important pieces of our language—by saving the very things they stand for.
When Mimi finds out her favorite words—simple words, like apricot, blackberry, buttercup—are disappearing from the English language, she elects her granddaughter Brook as their Keeper. And did you know? The only way to save words is to know them.

- A loving portrait of the special relationship that grandparents have with their grandchildren

ΣΥΓΓΡΑΦΕΑΣ
Madeline Kloepper
EIΚΟΝΟΓΡΑΦΟΣ“[In The Keeper of Wild Words] Kloepper’s soft illustrations feature green and brown earth tones that frame the white, matte pages; bursts of red, purple, and other spot colors enliven the scenes… Sensory details allow the protagonist to hear, see, smell, taste, and hold the wild… The last page forms an envelope for readers’ own vocabulary collections. Sweet—and savory.”
—Kirkus Reviews
“[T]touching, poetic, noble… The best use of [The Keeper of Wild Words] is to take children out on a nature hunt to collect and/or identify said listed items. Using the large envelope at the end of the book is a good way to make a keepsake of the experience.”
—School Library Journal
