Bob Lapierre wanted to create something genuinely original in classifying this highly sophisticated and complex human art form with other books, studies, and essays written about language. Moreover, he wished to write this book in a language that a young person can understand and wanted to explain that language ingenuously is only a symbol; it is a universal tool for communication between the "animated."
Lapierre revealed a list of 127 pidgin and Creole languages worldwide spoken.
