“That’s what the best books do. They make you think, and rethink how you see yourself, others, and the world. Most of all, they make you feel. Feelings toward people who aren’t like you. Feelings you didn’t know you had.”
Lisa Fipps, Starfish

“Why aren't kids allowed
to tell grown-ups when they're wrong?
They don't know
everything
Sometimes it's as if
they don't know
anything.”
Lisa Fipps, Starfish

“The fat on my body
never felt as heavy as
your words on my heart.”
Lisa Fipps, Starfish

“She's the first person to smile at me today.
The first to make me feel wanted.
Understood.
I blink back tears.
It's unknown how many students' lives
librarians have saved
by welcoming loners at lunch.”
Lisa Fipps, Starfish

“I'm a starfish,
taking up all the room I want.”
Lisa Fipps, Starfish
