  • Baker & Taylor
    Loving to expand his vocabulary with such exciting words as "elastic" and "smithereens," little Michael is always on the lookout for words to collect and is informed by a friend that his latest word is inappropriate, a warning that proves to be true when Michael experiments with the word at school.

    Michael loves interesting words (hard words like ELASTIC, little words like VAST, and big words like SMITHEREENS) and is always on the lookout for words to collect. Then one day, he picks up a new word. A bad word. An inappropriate word. At least, that's what his friend says. But Michael kind of likes the word. He thinks he might try it out.

    At school.

    Bad idea.
