I read every Gillian Bradshaw book I could get my hands on after I discovered her children's book, `The Dragon and the Thief.' Her hero is smart and awesome, his encounters with the villain gave me delicious suspense shivers, and the book is a fantasy set in ancient Egypt. How cool is that?<br /><br /> My mom (who I forced to read it by shoving the book into her hands) still can't figure out why I'm so crazy about it. She thinks it's `an okay book.' (Sigh.)

Given my ADD and the fact that I usually have half-a-dozen stories playing in my head any given day, that one story that can outshout all others is the one with spark.<br /><br />I love the classics! Of Mice and Men, Harry Potter, LOTR, all these sparked for me tremendously.Rachel6https://www.blogger.com/profile/15138745237488029817noreply@blogger.com
