My wife and I were selling our books at a large baptist church in central Maine recently, when a family came up to me. The father's eyes sparkled as he introduced me to his charming mouse of a daughter. He explained that she had written two books, and they could be found on Amazon.com. I looked down at her, quietly standing next to her father, and immediately recognized a familiar physical trait--one I see often, when I catch a glimpse of myself in something reflective. Her eyes were piercing and attentive, as if drinking in every once of the world around her. Did we share the same personality trait? I couldn't know for sure, but the intensity with which she observed her surroundings made me inclined to think we did.
I can't tell you her writing is exceptional. I can't even tell you it is adequate. What I can tell you is: she has written a story for young people, from the perspective of a young person, and in it, you will see the fingerprint of God.
If you are interested in supporting a budding Christian author, I highly recommend giving Mandie's Choice by Mary McColley a chance. At the very least, you will be bringing a smile to the sweetest little face I have ever seen, and you will make a doting dad very proud.
Grace and Peace
