A Snicker of Magic by Natalie Lloyd*

Felicity has wandered from town to town all her life with her wander-lust mother and little sister Frannie Jo.
When they arrive in Midnight Gulch, TN, to live with their aunt, Felicity hopes to make this town their home.  Midnight Gulch use to be magic but an over one hundred year old curse has left the people sad and without hope.
With Felicity's ability to see words form in the air and her new best friend Jonah who knows how to encourage individuals, the curse may soon be broken.
*Highly recommend.
Cannot recommend it enough!  Ms. Lloyd truly has a magical way with words!
Strategies/skills: inferring (character traits/development), word choice, determining importance-main idea, cause/effect, asking questions, visualizing, connections
