"How Was School Today...Fine" by Shannon and Peyton White.

If you have tween age or teen age children or grandchildren...this is a terrific book and resource.

It's available on Amazon, I believe. I did do some editing for her on it. It is truly an amazing book for parents and kids!

Well, my favorite book is The Things They Carried by Tim O'Brien. But there are so many: The Virgin Suicides, Self-Help by Lorrie Moore, Bastard Out of Carolina by Dorothy Allison, anything by Flannery O'Connor. I could go on and on.
