Ashimpa
The Mysterious Word
Bold, bright colors pair with textured pencil lines in this fanciful primer on the parts—and the silliness—of speech. When a researcher discovers a new word—“ashimpa”—everyone has an opinion on what it is. Some are ashimpishly certain it’s an adverb; others insist it’s a noun and search for an ashimpa for their table. Finally, another researcher puts the matter to rest and declares ashimpa a perlimpent, setting the whole sequence in motion again.
