  20. OOh, what a great giveaway. My daughters are both budding bookworms just like their mommy.

    DD #1, Joey (age 4), probably would say her fav Scholastic books are the Miss Bindergarten books. Her favorite is the first in the series, Miss Bindergarten Gets Ready for Kindergarten.

    DD #2, Jocelyn (age 2), would probably pick Clifford's Manners as her fav Scholastic read.

    One of mommy's favorite's from Scholastic is the classic Velveteen Rabbit.

Today I'm happy to welcome Gerard de Marigny , author of The Watchman of Ephraim , who's guest blogging here today. About the Book - Aref Sami Zamani is planning a terrorist attack on American soil - codenamed "Antioch," a plot to detonate a nuke over the city of Las Vegas.

Too much time has elapsed since Serena broke her engagement to her childhood companion, Rotherham, (and that too after the invitations had been sent - such a scandal !) for them to feel anything but discomfort at this bit of posthumous matchmaking on the part of the Earl.
