Wondrous Rex

Newbery Medal-winning author Patricia MacLachlan has written a magical and funny tale about the joy found in using words, sharing stories, and loving a wondrous dog: Rex. Now available in paperback. Graces aunt is a writer. She works with words every day and teaches Grace interesting words like melancholy and delirious. But Lily is often flummoxed by her writing. Her stories dont go anywhere, her desk is a mess, and her writers group cant help. So Lily posts an ad for an assistant: A writer of books needs an assistant, a coach, a helper, for inspiration and some magic! The next day, Grace opens the door, and there is Rex: a Labrador retriever who will change Graces life, and Lilys. The word amazing is an everyday word for Rex, who inspires Lily, and helps Grace find the words to write her own story.
