Writing can be so difficult for some students. When Ms. Mirabel visits a fourth grade classroom, she teaches the students how to write. They learn to connect their stories and poems to their own lives. The book focuses on five of the students, Lucy, Henry, Evie, Russell, and May. Each one learns that writing can change his or her life … word after word after word. This is a powerful story with amazing language. I loved it!
