If you don't have chills from that, you'll get them from marveling over the extreme succinctness of my post today - hitherto unheard of brevity :) Grab your Something Chocolate and let's get right down to Would You Read It!
Today's pitch comes to us from Jennifer. No, not the same Jennifer as last week. That was Jennifer R. This is Jennifer Y :)
Jennifer was born and raised in southern Connecticut and settled down in south Jersey. She loves quotes. One of her favorites is from The Edge - "What one man can do, another can do." You can visit her blog and like her on Face Book :)
Working Title: Planet Vacation
Age/Genre: Picture Book (ages 4-8)
The Pitch: Rose takes a vacation to visit the planets. Will she get a chance to rollerblade on the rings of Saturn and scuba dive for starfish on Jupiter or will her trip be nothing like she dreamed?
So what do you think? Would You Read It? YES, MAYBE or NO?
