Synopsis

Set in a world where words appear physically when people speak, AWAY WITH WORDS explores the importance of communication and being there for those we love.

Gala and her dad, Jordi, have just moved from home in Cataluña to a town in Scotland, to live with Jordi's boyfriend Ryan. Gala doesn't speak much English, and feels lost, lonely and unable to be her usual funny self. Until she befriends Natalie, a girl with selective mutism. The two girls find their own ways to communicate, which includes collecting other people's discarded words. They use the words to write anonymous supportive poems for their classmates, but then someone begins leaving nasty messages using the same method – and the girls are blamed. Gala has finally started adapting to her new life in Scotland and is determined to find the culprit. Can she and Natalie show the school who they really are?

An intriguing, thoughtful and lyrical exploration of how we express ourselves, for fans of Katya Balen, A POCKETFUL OF STARS and Lisa Thompson.

    What real parents are saying …
     
    “My high-energy toddler twins are asleep in 15 minutes. Bedtime used to take nearly 2 hours—but with Rocket’s calming narration and the beautiful stories from the Yawnimals box set, our nights have totally transformed. They YAWN on cue when Rocket YAWNS, and they’re asleep before the story ends.”        
     
    - Heather Schalk, Toddler Toolkit Podcast, Mother of 2 toddlers
     
    “Their favorites are Amanda the Panda (they love the journey), Benny the Bear (truly magical for relaxation), and Lincoln the Lizard (hello, Monster Trucks!).”
     
    “The stories are soothing, my toddlers love the illustrations, and this is now our must-have bedtime ritual. I can’t recommend this enough—it’s a total lifesaver for tired parents.”
