STORYTELLER’s WORD A DAY

Storyteller’s Word A Day is an illustrated daily flipbook designed to boost vocabulary for children aged 7 to 12. Each page features a sophisticated word, its definition, and a hilarious illustration to ensure retention through visual storytelling. Developed for term time use, the book contains 180 words to provide a consistent daily learning habit throughout the school year.

  • The objective was to design a desktop flipbook format durable enough for daily use across both UK and US markets. The project required a layout that could house a high density of linguistic data on every page, including word pairs, sample sentences, etymology, and quotes from classic fiction. The design needed to remain legible at a distance for classroom routines while providing enough detail for close up individual study.

  • I was a key member of the original design team, responsible for the initial content integration and the population of the complete 180 word library. I managed the layout and execution for every entry to ensure technical accuracy across the series. I subsequently became the lead designer for all later iterations, including the partnership with DK.

  • The product became an Amazon Best Seller and a staple of daily vocabulary routines in schools and households. The double-sided flipbook concept is a signiture feature of Mrs Wordsmith’s brand portfolio and has served as a foundation for multiple products.
