(10) an idea came to me!I ran home,took out a notebook and started to write.The moment I wrote down everything I loved(11) Mrs.Wade's store,I ran back.

(14) When I finished,she gave me a big,long hug (拥抱).
"Words are a powerful gift," she said again.That time (15) came to understand exactly what she meant,Mrs.Wade and I don't know if the store will close,but we will keep reading and writing all words we can!
