The book I bought has cover a girl dressed like Little Miss likes to dress and the girl is carrying a violin and a backpack. so the cover might finally draw her in.

What a happy shopping day! You must be so pleased!!! I know I'd be. I'd love to read Julia's Hope. That sounds like it'd be a really good read.

My mom normally let's me borrow the books I give her after she has read them.

I am looking forward to reading these while wearing my "new" polar fleece shirt and sip some hot chocolate

Can you tell I am dreaming of winter?

I have that whole series. There are 6 books total in the series. They are wonderful reading. I just read them again for the second time. She is a very good writer.
