Enhanced descriptions from Syndetics:
Andie Gladman is your typical kid - she lives in a small town, doesn't have many friends and quietly puts up with taunts from the school bully, Myrtle Klinghoffer. But one day, a new neighbor moves into the house next to Andie's family... and he looks awfully familiar. Could he be famous author Hans Christian Andersen? Andie sure thinks so, and the arrival of this well-known writer inspires Andie to write her own poems (with a feminist twist) based on his classic fairy tales. Her newfound hobby leads her to make a friend and finally feel some excitement about her previously quiet life... but will a shocking revelation change everything for Andie?
"A winsome middle-grade novel about a creative young girl who believes her new neighbor is Hans Christian Anderson."-- Provided by publisher.
