Oh, Carmen, I wholeheartedly agree with this recommendation! Rosanne is a fellow member of the Class of 2K9, and I loved reading HEART OF A SHEPHERD. Rosanne will be coming to Maryland in July to participate in our regional SCBWI conference and then at a booksigning at Constellation Books in Reisterstown, MD.
Looks like a winner:)
The cover urges me to read the story.
Thanks so much for the mention, Carmen!
I'm delighted you like the cover Betsy. It's the work of the very talented Jonathon Barkat. Does it have a familiar feel? He's the same artist who did the stunning cover for Kirby Larson's Hattie Big Sky.
