Lila’s pocket doesn’t hold ordinary things like sticky candies or smooth, gray stones. It holds a secret folded into a tiny, perfect square: a poem.
It's her most precious treasure, a whispering crinkle against the denim that only she can hear, and a magical warmth that glows against her leg when the world feels too big. In a town full of gray, clanging noises and people too busy to listen, Lila’s poem is her most faithful companion.
But what happens when a secret doesn't want to be a secret anymore?
When a sudden rip, a gust of wind, and a run-in with a bully leave her precious poem torn, muddy, and lost in the middle of the uncaring town, Lila’s quiet world is turned upside down. To save her poem, she must do the one thing she's always been afraid of: she must find her voice and share it with the world.
"The Girl with a Poem in Her Pocket" is a heartwarming story about the magic hidden in small things. It's a journey of discovering that the most powerful words aren't just the ones we read on a page, but the ones we have the courage to speak from our hearts.
