Sounds like a wonderful story. Love the cover.
Thanks, Jocelyn! Oh, yes–I fell in love with the cover the minute I saw it! So sweet–and exactly how I pictured Jess!
Books must be very important to this little girl. Would enjoy reading this.
Hi, Vivian! Yes, books are very important to Jess, the little girl in the story! I could relate because I was a bookworm growing up myself! I hope you enjoy the story!
I like the cover. The book shelf reminds me of when daughter arranged her books by color. It was really neat looking!
Julie, I’ve never thought about arranging books by color–that’s a neat idea! Until you mentioned it I hadn’t even noticed that on the cover! I may have to go rearrange my bookshelves now!
i’ve thought about doing that – because it’s so pretty – but then the logical side of me wonders how I’ll ever find a book when I want it lol
Great giveaway! Congrats on your new book!
