Thank you for all of your wonderful comments about my interview with author Kristin Hannah and Home Front. I enjoyed your discussions as I know Kristin did. It was such a pleasure to bring the interview to all of you! Kristin had a lot to share and I hope you gained as much as I did.
The winner of Home Front is – Julie Rowan-Zoch!
Congratulations Julie! You were selected in a random drawing. I hope you let me know what you think of the book. I have your e-mail address and will contact you for your mailing address.
Join me Monday, May 14, as I will continue with my focus on Military Families with a review of a series of books for children called “We Serve Too!” Written and illustrated by two grandmothers, the books are designed for the children who have sacrificed so much when their parent is deployed. All three books have earned the Silver Mom’s Choice Awards Honoring Excellence. I hope you will stop back, especially if you are a military family, or know of a child with a deployed parent. I’m excited to share these books.

Having trouble sending an email reply so here it is:
Oh yes, Pat, you definitely made my day! The therapy has a name, so I’ll ask the friend and let you know, as well as what I think of the book – the other comments were so appealing I can only imagine it will be terrific! I’ve already put a two titles mentioned in the comments on hold – never thought I would win! Yipee! Thanks for the tips on where to get the books – I am a bargain hunter!
