I really enjoyed this story, even though I am well above the age group it is aimed at and now that these books are available in Waterstones in England, I intend to buy a copy of Amanda in New Mexico too. Now, will I keep it or give it away as a gift? 😉

I am always pleased to hear that adults enjoy my books as well. We are all kids at heart. I do hope you enjoy Amanda in New Mexico. after all, you gave me the idea of La Catrina. I would love to hear what you think of how I included her. Thanks!!

I have been waiting until we returned to England to buy actual copy rather than a download on my Kindle. There is a store in nearby Chichester and I intend to go there soon. Will take photo to show you. 😉

How sweet, Darlene. And such an articulate young reader!

This is what happens when children read a lot. They have a good command of the English language. She is also from the UK.

What a wonderful review. I like the fact that she read it all in one go. It’s great when you don’t want to put a book down and just keep on going till the end, it’s a most satisfying experience.

Thanks, Lorna. I liked that too. I no longer am able to read a book from start to finish in one reading, but I did when I was younger.

I’ve said it before and I’ll say it again…we have a young writer in the making!! A great review for a great writer!!

Awe! Thanks so much. Having the ability to articulate well via writing is a skill that will take her far in life. I’m sure it is the result if being an avid reader.

The very highest praise when a children’s author gets such a glowing and eloquent review from an 8 year old!

What a lovely review! Makes it all worthwhile, doesn’t it?

It doesn’t get much more authentic, does it? Congrats on a wonderful review, Darlene!
