Award-winning author Jen Bryant and Caldecott Honor-winning illustrator Melissa Sweet tell the captivating story of the Thesaurus and its inventor Peter Mark Roget.

Words, Peter learned, were powerful things. And when he put them in long, neat rows, he felt as if the world itself clicked into order.

For shy young Peter Mark Roget, books were the best companions -- and it wasn't long before Peter began writing his own book. But he didn't write stories; he wrote lists.

Peter took his love for words and used it to organize his ideas and find exactly the right word to express just what he thought. His lists grew and grew, eventually turning into one of the most important reference books of all time.

The Right Word is an inviting, visually engrossing portrayal of Peter Mark Roget and the creation of the thesaurus. Jen Bryant's lyrical text and brilliantly detailed mixed media illustrations from Caldecott Honor-winning artist Melissa Sweet celebrate the joy of learning and the power of words.
