Description - Write Before Your Eyes by Lisa Williams Kline
Solid, well-written and engaging middle grade fiction with a great commercial hook- this is the ideal fairy tale for tween readers. Lisa Williams Kline never takes the cliched or easy way out in this middle grade fairy tale about a girl who controls the future with her journal. This is a wholesome, well-crafted story that also serves as an homage to the power of writing.
TWELVE-YEAR-OLD GRACIE IS always flying under the radar of her overworked parents and outspoken siblings. But when she buys an old journal at a yard sale, Gracie is stunned to realize that everything she writes in the journal comes true-though sometimes in unexpected ways.
At first Gracie uses the journal selfishly, controlling her mother's BlackBerry and eliminating the dress code at school. But then she starts to think about bigger issues- what about world hunger? Global warming? World peace Unfortunately, before she can make headway on any of those issues, the journal falls into the wrong hands-and soon Gracie and her best friend/crush Dylan are rushing around town trying to undo the damage! This fun, warm, emotionally honest novel is both a fantastic adventure and a testament to the power of writing to change the world.
