Enhanced descriptions from Syndetics:
Award-winning author Jodi Carmichael, who has ADHD herself, affirms and celebrates those who struggle with their uniqueness and triumphantly discover its gifts
It isn't easy being Louisa Elizabeth Fitzhenry-O'Shaughnessy--especially with dyslexia. She prefers Lou Fox, the dream name she'll use one day as a famous Broadway playwright. In the meantime, Lou is stuck in fifth grade with Mrs. Snyder, a total Shadow Phantom of a teacher who can spot a daydream from across the room but doesn't know anything about ADHD. Mrs. Snyder's constant attention is ex-cru-ci-a-ting. If only she would disappear. Fortunately, life isn't all a-tro-cious. There's The Haunting at Lakeside School, the play Lou is writing and directing for her two best friends. And soon she'll be a big sister at last. Nothing could ruin the joy of those things...right?
"Louisa, a fifth grader who has ADHD and dyslexia, wishes her overly tough teacher would disappear--then fears she has unleashed a curse when Mrs. Snyder becomes ill. Lou throws herself into the play she is writing and directing for her friends, but conflict follows when she becomes too pushy. At home, Lou alternates between jealousy and excitement as she prepares to become a big sister at last."-- Provided by publisher.
