The Big Word Factory
“The Big Word Factory” * has already won the hearts of many readers. I want to form my own opinion and bought it straight away.
With a total of 40 pages, the book can be read quickly, but still leaves you pondering its meaning afterwards.

What is it about?
In the country of the great word factory, people hardly speak a word because words are very expensive here. That’s why only rich people speak very often and a lot because they can afford it.
For those who don’t have enough money to buy words, the only option is to rummage through the trash, wait for special offers, or catch words flying around in the air with butterfly nets. But there’s not much you can do with these words, because they’re either dropout words or words that hardly anyone uses.
But one day, three words get caught in Paul’s net, and he can’t afford words either. He wants to give his girlfriend Marie, with whom he is in love, the words “cherry, dust, chair” for her birthday. But as he is about to do so, his opponent Oskar, india mobile database whose parents are incribly rich, arrives. Countless words fall from his mouth with which he wants to impress Marie.

But Paul doesn’t let himself be discourag and, with all the love he can muster, says the three words for Marie: Cherry. Dust. Chair.
Marie is enchant by the sound of the words. Since she also has no words to thank him, she gives Paul a kiss.
And Paul tells her the last word, which he sav for a very special moment like this, but I won’t tell you! Haha!
My recommendation
let’s get serious again and address the question: How do I find the book?
It’s sweet, it’s loving, it’s beautiful and it reminds us once again that it’s not the google trends: instructions for use WHAT that matters, but the HOW.
Oskar may have a lot of money, or rather his parents, and he talks like a be numbers waterfall, but above all he does so without feeling. What is the use of confessing your love to someone if the rest of your body cannot express this message? If facial expressions and gestures are completely ignor? If you don’t speak from your heart?
And that’s exactly where Paul is completely different. He only has three words, which in themselves make no sense at all and don’t even form a sentence.
