Friend Friday

I am so very pleased to share the good news about Liesl Shurtliff's new book, Rump. Liesl was a student of mine when I taught for the Institute of Children's Literature and I knew she had the right stuff. But I had no idea she could take one of the least-loved characters of fairy tales, Rumplestiltskin, and make me care about him.

Adventure, danger and humor are woven into one golden package in this fun read. Buy two copies and donate one to your local elementary school!
