Picture Book Review: Stacey's Extraordinary Words

Stacey loves words - and understanding their meaning. She's excited when her teacher chooses her to be in a local spelling bee. But Stacey is nervous. What if she doesn't win?

I love the idea of that words are comforting and they have power. I love how this turned out and how Stacey persisted. 

Library Recommendation: A must have for you school and public library's collection.
