Write and Read a number more than 255 in Arduino EERPOM

Using the library EEPROM.h, EEPROM.write writes 1 byte of data which is limited to writing a number between 0 and 255. To write a word or 2^15 of data (-32768 to 32767), avr/eeprom.h, eeprom_write_word, eeprom_read_word could be used as given in the video.
