4.0 out of 5 stars Learn how to be a "word builder" with this very engaging, unique book!, July 7, 2009
This review is from: Word Builder (Hardcover)
The tractor is coming into a building with a heavy load of twenty-six letters and a boy is already working hard with pneumatic nail gun hammering "a through z into words." Naturally once you have your words made you then have to put them into sentences. The boy has a set of pulleys and is putting them together. He cuts some sentences into tall ones, while others are short. Of course you have to "mortar each sentence with punctuation."

The boy is hard at work with his nailer and doing a bit of rough framing because you have to "frame your sentences into paragraph villages." The cranes are out placing the paragraphs "into chapter cities." Work, work, work! You have to keep on going until you create the ultimate . . . a book!

This is an unusual book that may not appeal to all people. The text is minimal and the gist of the story is the construction of the basic elements of letters into words, sentences, paragraphs and chapters. This is a very unique way to introduce this building process. The art work is very engaging and many children will be fascinated by it. This book would be an excellent addition to any homeschool or classroom shelf.
