It started in May with Little Free Library book drops in my neighborhood, then the whole county, then other cities where I've lived in California. That's 237 books so far!
Now I'm heading for the interstate!
I am a one-woman show with a passion, a limited budget, and a belief in the kindness of others. With that, I'm delivering If Roses Were Blue to Little Free Libraries in cities where I've lived across 6 states, plus a few drops as I go. Road trip! And, I may be giving Wow! Our World presentations, based on the book 101 Ways to Wow! Our World, along the way. How? The kindness of others. I’m currently getting hotel comps and donations.
It's a wildly optimistic adventure to share the positive messages in both award-winning books: Rose – a delightful tale for survivors of abuse and those who care about them, and Wow! – reminding everyone of the value they bring to the world.
Whoo-hoo! Buckle up!
