Ricky Searches for Words – Ronni Finds Words

A reversible book about the power of words

Ronni and Ricky are best friends until a row drives them apart. Words can hurt, but they can also bridge divides. Ricky searches behind the cupboard, under the sofa and in the bin for words to make up with Ronni.
When you flip the book over, you’ll find out how Ronni is getting on in the meantime: Ronni wants to put the row behind him too. Little colourful words show the way back to Ricky. In the middle of the book, the two meet – with the words they’ve found and a heartfelt hug.

This extraordinary reversible book sensitively illustrates the power of words: how they can divide and how they can unite – right to the very core – and provides an ideal basis for talking to children about the power of language.
