Every family invents its own language. The Kalergis Family Dictionary collects one such language-joyful, affectionate, and delightfully unruly-into a beautifully illustrated keepsake for children and the grown-ups who remember being one.Inside are dozens of original "definitions," born from bedtime rituals, childhood mispronunciations, family songs, pets, mishaps, and moments that became legendary simply because they were shared. A "Set-Up" isn't just bedtime-it's an act of love. "Bibble" is irresistible dog jowl poetry. A "Rombadoon Room" tells the whole story of playtime gone gloriously wrong.Compiled by members of the Kalergis family and illustrated in a warm, classic storybook style, this dictionary sits somewhere between a picture book, a family album, and a tradition waiting to be continued. Children delight in the silliness; adults recognize the deeper truth beneath it: language is how families remember who they are.
