Hi all,
Sometimes I can tell that my age is catching up to me.
I think my brain gets it,but it just doesn't register.
The title was given to me correctly as "POSSIBLES" but in my brain is was =
POSSIBILITIES.... as I reported in the hit. No wonder I couldn't find a =
review on the book ANYWHERE.... duh!
It wasn't until Jean Lowery sent me the synopsis on the back of the book =
that I realized it was not POSSIBILITIES....
so.....
The book title for which I was looking is "POSSIBLES"
It's a great book for showing kids how to cope with very difficult =
situations.
From the back cover of Possibles -- Thanks, Jean.
Sheppy never expected a summer like this. Just before Sheppy's father =
died, he told her that anything is possible. But Sheppy finds that hard =
to
believe. She just spend the school year trading insults with Parker =
Ford,and now, instead of spending the summer at camp with her best friend, =
she
faces endless days "lady sitting" cranky Constance Montgomery. As the =
summer goes on, Sheppy unlocks some of Miss Montgomery's and Parker's =
secrets, and begins to like them more than she ever imagined. She also =
learns some hidden truths about her own family and finds the strength to =
look beyond the surface and see hidden "possibles" all around.
Also... thanks to Anne for her help as well.
Readingly yours,
Chris
