A group for people who love Children's books!

May 12

About Me:: I am a 30-something year old English teacher who just loves to read, read, read. Blogging now to review ALL the children and young adult books I've read.

Do you have a new book I should read and review? Email me at kittycat2006@live.com

At the same time, I hope that the reviews will help those learning English as a second language and wanting to know more about cultures of the world.

My name is Chris Tusa, and I'm a writer from New Orleans. I am writing because my debut novel, Dirty Little Angels, is now available, and I was hoping you might be willing to mention it on your blog (or review it). If you're interested, I'd be glad to send you an e-book version of the book. Just let me know. I've included a summary of the novel below:

Dirty Little Angels
Set in the slums of New Orleans, among clusters of crack houses and abandoned buildings, Dirty Little Angels is the story of sixteen year old Hailey Trosclair. When the Trosclair family suffers a string of financial hardships and a miscarriage, Hailey finds herself looking to God to save her family. When her prayers go unanswered, Hailey puts her faith in Moses Watkins, a failed preacher and ex-con. Fascinated by Moses's lopsided view of religion, Hailey, and her brother Cyrus, begin spending time down at an abandoned bank that Moses plans to convert into a drive-through church. Gradually, though, Moses's twisted religious beliefs become increasingly more violent, and Hailey and Cyrus soon find themselves trapped in a world of danger and fear from which there may be no escape.

If you'd like to read the first chapter before you commit, feel free to visit my web site:

Thanks so much,
Chris

At 6:19pm on October 11, 2008, Cheryl said…: Hi Kitty Kat! I'm still new to all this, so I don't know how to send you an invitation without knowing your email address. You can email me at cheryl@csn-llc.com or you can sign up at www.realmoviereviews.ning.com. We're still a small group, but I'm sure we'll grow as the word gets out. We'd love to have you!

At 10:57pm on August 28, 2008, Becky said…: I've invited you to join the google reading group. If you didn't get your invite, let me know. I can try to add you directly. Sometimes it's picky about emails--gmail and yahoo having an easier time of it. But it may work just fine, I've just learned that a few people have problems signing in with the invite. Anyway, I try to have a good mix of books. The occasional new book--which you might have difficulty with finding in China--and older books and classics as well. For September/October, we're reading The Count of Monte Cristo.

At 9:52pm on August 19, 2008, KittyCat said…: Hi BeckyB - Nice to meet you. I know a few American families who, just like you, have opened their homes to Chinese children.

You may heard this already but you've got an incredibly big heart :)

I'm creating a new personal blog soon that focuses on China and basically everything Chinese. In the process, if I come across any such good reads, I'd be sure to let you know!
