What if words were real treasures? In the poetic picture book "Der Wortschatz" (The Vocabulary), Oscar discovers a mysterious treasure chest – filled with words instead of gold. Initially disappointed, he soon realizes the incredible power of language. With each word he uses, new possibilities and surprising adventures unfold. When the chest is finally empty, Oscar learns that the most beautiful words are often those we invent ourselves.

With great sensitivity, humor, and a unique combination of image, graphic, and text, Rebecca Gugger and Simon Röthlisberger tell of the joy of language, creativity, and the conscious use of words. An inspiring picture book that invites children and adults alike to marvel, reflect, and tell stories together.
