From Follett
Destiny, a budding writer, is upset when she learns Mrs. Wade, the owner of a very special bookstore, may have to go out of business, and she starts a campaign to save the store, in addition to writing a story just for her friend, Mrs. Wade, who shares Destiny's love for words.
From the Publisher
Destiny loves words and her favourite place in the world is Mrs Wade's bookstore. On Saturdays, destiny helps Mrs Wade at the store and at the end of the day they relax together, drinking tea and reading. One Saturday, Mrs Wade does not seem her usual self and Destiny learns that the bookshop is about to close. Destiny is determined not to let this happen. As she rallies the community to help keep the store open, she also creates an imaginative journal for Mrs Wade that captures the warmth and special magic of the store forever.
