Welcome to Litsy!

I read this story with my 9 year old and we both really enjoyed it. It was inspiring to see how Gina learns to use her “overactive imagination” to become a gifted writer with the guidance and encouragement from an amazing, open minded teacher.

A joyous read of childish imagination and friendship. All of the characters are unique and the adult characters were very present.

I would love to teach in the world of this book where one can do creative writing on a daily basis w/o standardized tests. One Time follows Gina who had gotten in trouble in the past because of her active imagination and daydreaming. An ELA teacher and a mysterious neighbor help Gina to foster her creativity. 100% clean and would not have any issue recommending to upper elementary and middle school students. #bookspin @thearomaofbooks
