OverviewFrom Newbery Medalist Cynthia Rylant comes the final installment in the critically acclaimed Rosetown Books series, rounding out the touching story of eleven-year-old Flora Smallwood’s life in quiet Rosetown, Indiana. It’s May, and Flora Smallwood is nearing the end of fifth grade. Her most-loved place in all of Rosetown—Wings and a Chair Used Books—is officially closed for good. Flora has summer to look forward to with her two best friends, yet that empty storefront on Main Street still reminds her of the bookshop that had been so dear. But as spring moves into summer and time goes on, Flora comes to see that the things she has recently had to let go of in her life might, in fact, be followed by things equally lovely and new.

Table of ContentsReviewsAs in the series’ previous entries, Rylant imbues her gently flowing story with almost reverent affection for its simpler-time, small-town setting. She deftly captures her protagonist’s often-conflicting feelings. Flora worries about change and thinks back on what’s been lost even as new things provide fresh delights; her perspective will resonate deeply with readers who recognize Flora as kin—sensitive children and nostalgic adults alike. . . . An elegant, empathetic final visit to a bygone time. -- Kirkus Reviews * May 15th issue * Author InformationCynthia Rylant is the author of more than one hundred books for young people, including beloved series Henry and Mudge, Motor Mouse, and Mr. Putter & Tabby series.
