by Kate Banks (Author), Boris Kulikov (Illustrator)

Bright, bold pictures incorporating clever wordplay accompany this highly original tale from Kate Banks and illustrator Boris Kulikov about a younger brother's ingenuity.

Max's brothers have grand collections that everyone makes a big fuss over. Benjamin collects stamps and Karl collects coins, and neither one will share with their little brother. So Max decides to start a collection of his own. He's going to collect words. He starts with small words that he cuts out of newspapers and magazines, but soon his collection has spilled out into the hall.

All the while, his brothers are watching. Benjamin brags that he has one thousand stamps. Karl is just a few coins short of five hundred. But a thousand stamps is really just a bunch of stamps, and a lot of coins is only a heap of money. A pile of words, however, can make a story.

Max's Words is a Bank Street - Best Children's Book of the Year.
