Show Synopsis Lance is the smartest kid in grade six and never misses an opportunity to show off his vocabulary. Sylvia, a daydreamer in grade three, always creates fantastical worlds but struggles to find the words to bring her stories to life. When Lances teacher assigns him Sylvia as a reading buddy, he focuses on his own writing rather than spending time with her. When he cant think of a story on his own, Sylvias vibrant imagination creates a world of magic from which he draws inspiration. Together, they learn that Sylvia can overcome her fear of reading and that Lance discovers that the biggest word isnt always the smartest, and that you really cant judge a person until you get to know them.
