Nola is much like most other nine year-old girls. She loves birthday parties, being outside, and is always annoyed by her little brother. But Nola has well, a major pet peeve, and a serious obsession. She can't stand bad grammar and she refuses to accept not being able to have a furry animal for a pet. What a combination of quirks!
This playful poetic adventure is an amusing and sneaky tutorial in proper English grammar that will prove too amusing to insult.
How will Nola's story end? How will she survive in a world where she can't make everyone she encounters use proper English? Will she ever get her wish of owning a furry pet? The answers may surprise you. Then again, maybe you'll have too much fun reading to even care.
Sometimes one little discovery can make our big problem seem a lot smaller.
