| Summary: | It's May, and Flora Smallwood is nearing the end of fifth grade. Her most-loved place in all of Rosetown--Wings and a Chair Used Books--is officially closed for good. Flora has summer to look forward to with her two best friends, yet that empty storefront on Main Street still reminds her of the bookshop that had been so dear. But as spring moves into summer and time goes on, Flora comes to see that the things she has recently had to let go of in her life might, in fact, be followed by things equally lovely and new. |
