A charming tribute to the importance of free expression that will delight readers of all ages.
It all started with a word. And because it escaped from Lily's mouth, she was arrested by the Worder Control, taken to the Censor, and ordered to recapture the word and return it to his prison before it could cause any more damage. Lily's journey takes her from the Thought Leaders of Middle Case City to the scolds of Twaddle Talk Valley, and along the way, she meets the Wordsmith, the Slangster, Dr. Idiom, Miss Logophile, and others who help her discover a newfound appreciation or the power of words, the responsibility to use them well, and the confidence to speak her mind.
