Since I work with elementary school kids, I read a lot of middle grade and children's titles.

I love Lisa Samson's writing. This character was also in a couple of her other books, so I knew some of the outcome based upon that. This is a story of hope and the love of Jesus for everyone.

I love Lisa Samsons books. She is a Christian Author, so when I sit down to read, I'm ready to see faith issues tackled. Lillie is an admittedly overweight wedding planner who also has an extreme side - she loves extreme adventures - bungee jumping, catepult rides, etc. She still pines for Teddy,...
