A girl's struggle to save her family's farm, told in verse, stands
as a testament to the power of hope.
Twelve-year-old Eva DeHart knows her family's farm is the best,
most magical place in the whole world. The Farm has apple trees and
sun daisies and a creek. The Farm has frightening things too--like
cougars, bears, and a dead tree that Eva calls the Demon Snag. And
everything at the Farm shoots out of Eva's fingertips into her
poems. She dreams of being a heroine of shining deeds, but who ever
heard of a heroine-poet?
When a blight strikes the orchard and a letter from the bank
arrives marked FORECLOSURE, Eva is given that very chance as she
puts all the power of her imagination at work to save the Farm.
From a booth at the farmer's market to the snowbound hills where
the coyotes hunt, Eva discovers that we face our fears and find our
courage in the most unexpected places.
This novel in verse by acclaimed author Dia Calhoun is about the
transforming powers of imagination and hope, which can turn us all
into heroes.
