Introducing an extraordinary debut that will make your skin tingle, your eyes glisten...and your heart sing. Midnight Gulch Tennessee used to be a magical place, a town where people could sing up thunderstorms and dance up sunflowers. But that was long ago, before a curse drove the magic away. Twelve-year-old Felicity Pickles knows all about things like that since her nomadic mother is cursed with a wandering heart. But when she arrives in Midnight Gulch, Felicity thinks her luck's about to change. A "word collector," Felicity sees words everywhere - shining above strangers, tucked into church eves, and tangled up her dog's floppy ears - but Midnight Gulch is the first place she's ever seen the word "home." And then there's Jonah the Beedle, a mysterious, spiky-haired do-gooder who shimmers with words Felicity's never seen before, words that make Felicity's heart beat a little faster.
