I can't wait to read your next book! And Barbara Jane sounds delightful! I think children's books are the most difficult writings I have encountered.
.
Wren is written for a very narrow audience--Middle-Grade girls--6th through 8th grades--will find it most appealing. Younger readers will enjoy most of the story, and the language is accessible for reluctant readers. But the themes of puberty and the changes that come with it are better for older girls.

Congratulations on your new book! I know you have been busy with the launch so it's good to stop in and see you here. In addition to working on the prequel to my novel Bona-Fide, I've also pulled a children's book out of the files that I wrote several years back when my oldest grandchildren were younger. I had it on the back burner too waiting for the right time to bring it out and polish it up. It's one of many story's I used to tell them about a little girl named "Barbara Jane". Yes, just one of many.
So now that these girls are all older, they may enjoy your book better! What do you think? What is the best age for "Wren" ?
