Category /Genre:  Children's LitReceived from:  Chantal Fournier & Nicolas Lajeunesse (in exchange for an honest review)Tour by:  Novel PublicityRecommended for:  Beginning readersGrammar/editing:  A – near perfectZelda is a little chatterbox.  When her parents are blown away in a freak wind, she is orphaned and stops speaking.  The words in her head escape and become a cloud that follows her.  Using her cloud of words, she travels far and wide to search for her parents and her voice.This is a first book for Ms. Fournier and she has shown herself to be an admirable storyteller.  For most children, this would be a nice beginning reader book exploring the power of reading.  There is also something to be said for this book being made available to children who have lost a parent.  I can see this as a stepping stone in a small child's healing process.  I hope I am included when Ms. Fournier produces her next book, GRAVITY FARM.
