Wildspeak / words by Sangma Francis ; pictures by Lexi Vangsnes.

Francis, Sangma, (author.). Vangsnes, Lexi, (illustrator.).

Summary:

"In the wide, wide world beneath wide, wide skies, WILDSPEAK transforms an ordinary walk into an extraordinary exploration of nature and imagination. Readers wander through vivid nature scenes filled with real-life wonders--mayflies skimming the air, blackbirds calling from hedgerows, brambles tangling at the edges of hidden paths. But this journey doesn't stop at what we can see. It expands into what we can name. As streams twist and sparkle into SUNGLITTER and sunsets transform into CLOUDBLOOM, readers are invited to create their own language for the beauty around them. The book blends authentic nature vocabulary with inventive new words, encouraging observation, creativity, and a deeper connection to the natural world. Perfect for nature lovers, curious minds, and creative spirits, this imaginative picture book turns every walk into a story waiting to be told"-- Provided by publisher.
