Harlequin is lucky to have such an eloquent author who brings us such unique characters and important issues like poverty amongst American children. Prior to becoming a full time author, I was a teacher in a city with a large percentage of students with free and reduced lunch which is the terminology used for students living in poverty.

In Tucson I know our Firefighters and several churches take children shopping for things like shoes and clothing before school starts each year. I know many do holiday dinners, too. But I find it so sad to know a growing child might only get one meal a day. It's just wrong.rozdennyfoxhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06506701706951201107noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2442063056672240555.post-17399422640221401932015-08-15T15:19:42.290-07:002015-08-15T15:19:42.290-07:00Kathy, so good to hear from you.

At the school I work at, we have something called Joanie's Closet (named after a beloved nurse who went above and beyond to take care of many children in our district). People donate food, gift cards, clothing, etc for needy kids.

To me it really was a gritty look at what was happening in the South at the time she wrote it. I didn't find it as well written as To Kill a Mockingbird, but we don't know how many books she wrote prior to sending it out to an agent. And I hope the reason for bringing it out wasn't all about how much it rozdennyfoxhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06506701706951201107noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2442063056672240555.post-38068506933255868842015-08-15T13:24:36.398-07:002015-08-15T13:24:36.398-07:00Thanks for the fun post, Roz.

I think every family should have a garden that they work together, rich or poor. What a great bonding experience, too. How about Lucas Till and Olivia Munn for your cast?

The cover is very vivid and eye-catching, and the storyline sounds wonderful.

Looks like summer and hope. <br />I saw a news segmant of a family in the middle of Los Angeles who took their 5000sqft lot around their home and planted an enchanting organic garden.
