Norah Ellen LOVES words. She learns that words are important and can be more than just names for things. Words are able to teach us how to act, hope, and dream. Words can bring us joy! This little alphabet book goes beyond the basics of "apple to zebra" and gives Norah, and all who read this book, a primer on how to grow, learn and live life well from a faith-based perspective. Written in simple rhyme, children are introduced to somewhat complex ideas in an uncomplicated manner. The beautiful illustrations capture each word perfectly and add so much personality to Norah and her friends as they journey through the alphabet to learn all the best words to know. The list of words is by no means exhaustive. Readers are encouraged to add their own "best words" as they develop vocabulary and discover the most meaningful words to help them live joyful, compassionate and fulfilling lives.
