eat dirt, right? Not Fip! Lerner Chanse, 6th grader at Cleveland
Park Middle School, finds a worm that eats words! The strange thing
is that after Fip eats a word that item disappears from the world.
What power Lerner has! What words should Lerner feed Fip next?
Crime? Disease? Or Cleveland Park Middle School? But
what will happen if Fip eats those? Will Lerner discover the responsibility
that goes along with power before it’s too late? Read The Word Eater
by Mary Amato to find out. (Beth Lindsay, Senior Librarian, Youth
