Twelve-year-old September is a bright, imaginative girl who loves to explore the world around her. But when her parents move to a new town, she finds herself struggling to fit in. With no friends and no one to talk to, September turns to her imagination to find solace. As September navigates her new life, she discovers the power of friendship and the importance of family. Along the way, she learns to embrace her differences and find her own unique place in the world. September's End is a story of courage, resilience, and the power of friendship. It is a story of hope and acceptance, and a reminder that no matter how hard life can be, there is always a way to find joy and happiness.

First lines
In the ash tree There is a soft rustling, Lingering, like A silken whisper, Quite different Than sound the other trees; As if the bronzy leaves Had much to say Before they part, And were loath To bid farewell.
