In this Coretta Scott King Author Honor Book, Children's Literature Legacy Award-winner Nikki Grimes explores though her celebrated poetry how a supportive teacher can be the key to unlocking a dreamer's imaginative power through creative writing.Gabby's world is filled with daydreams. However, what began as an escape from her parents' arguments has now taken over her life. But with the help of a new teacher, 'Gabby the dreamer' might just become 'Gabby the writer' and the words that once carried her away might allow her to soar. Written in vivid, accessible poems, this remarkable verse novel is a celebration of imagination, of friendship, of one girl's indomitable spirit, and of a teacher's ability to reach out and change a life.Coretta Scott King Author Honor bookNCTE Notable Children's Books in the English Language ArtsKirkus Reviews Best Book

I am a huge fan of novels written in verse but I don't entirely feel that this needed to be written that way. However, I did really enjoy the imagery and the idea of turning a single word into a daydream and a beautiful picture and memory with so much detail. I really wish this book had been a bit longer because I was really enjoying it!It is a pretty quick book that is definitely worth the read!
