Word After Word After Word by Patricia MacLachlan

As the end of the school year approaches, a new teacher steps into Lucy's classroom and the world changes for her and her four friends. Ms. Mirabel brings magical words,a new way of seeing the world and a wonderful journey into writing. As poems are written and stories unfold, the lives of Lucy, Henry, Evie, Russell, and May are exposed and changed forever.

I don't know how Patricia MacLachlan does it. She puts a complete, beautiful, inspiring story in 125 pages. I am once again moved to tears by the beauty and honesty of this story. You have to experience this wonderful,must-read novel yourself.
