Kimika & Kalynn: Sisters The Word Wizard

Words are powerful-but they work best when everyone understands them.Kalynn loves learning new words. Big words. Fancy words. Words that sound smart and impressive. Soon, she's using them everywhere-at school, at home, and even with her sister Kimika.There's just one problem... no one knows what she's talking about.When Kalynn's made-up and misused words start confusing her classmates-and embarrassing Kimika-the sisters find themselves at odds. Kimika teases. Kalynn feels misunderstood. And a simple conversation turns into hurt feelings.With help from Mom and Dad, the sisters learn that words aren't meant to impress people-they're meant to connect us.
