I first read the Word Eater 5 years ago and have recommended it ever since. Imagine being able to destroy a word and destroy everything that goes with it: war (gone!), hunger (gone!), homework (gone!), friendship (gone!) WHAT! That is where the problem starts.
Lerner finds a worm and decides to make it her pet, and she names him Fip. As Fip crawls around on her schoolwork one day she realizes he is actually eating the words on her paper! She writes the word pencil and watches as the worm crawls right over it and poof! the pencil in her hand disappears.
Lerner is so excited about her magical worm, maybe Fip can help her get rid of all the troubles in her life. However, she soon realizes that feeding words to her worm isn’t as easy as she thought it would be.
I give this book by Mary Amato 4 ½ book worms out of 5.
