Description
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? In The U-nique Lou Fox , award-winning author Jodi Carmichael , who has ADHD herself, affirms and celebrates those who struggle with their uniqueness and triumphantly discover its gifts.
