Growing up can be so complicated! Especially when the world seems to be turning so fast that suddenly the things around us begin to shrink, while our body becomes very big. It’s even worse when we spend our lives stumbling over words and our head insists on playing tricks with us and switching the place of syllables, or moving letters from one side to another like a carousel. All words become a real puzzle. It’s just that when we change the place of letters, then the words can end up meaning something completely different. And if we say words in the wrong place… then that’s when everything goes pear-shaped and we can end up really upsetting someone!

We can even find ourselves saying something that we didn’t mean to say and end up with a word stuck in our throat, choking us like a fish bone. A fish such as salmon, that, as it happens, is also a colour. And which, as a word, is very similar to Solomon, which is also the name of some incredible islands in the middle of the Pacific Ocean, where it is always summer, where there are gigantic exotic insects and probably no one cares about spelling mistakes!
