Description

<p>What if you treated others the way you'd like to be treated? What if everyone did that? What kind of world could there be? Robert and Kait decide to look for the golden ruler that their Mom has told them about, only to find out that she meant RULE instead of ruler. What is this &quot;Golden Rule&quot; and what does it mean? Join in the children's quest to discover how to follow the Golden Rule and share it with others, as you meet many classroom friends from the author's previous books. This is the eighth rhyming children's book by award-winning author Sherrill S. Cannon, whose other bestselling books include Mice &amp; Spiders &amp; Webs...Oh My!, My Fingerpaint Masterpiece, Manner-Man, Gimme-Jimmy, The Magic Word, Peter and the Whimper-Whineys and Santa's Birthday Gift. Former teacher Sherrill S. Cannon has won thirty-six awards for her previous rhyming books and is also the author of seven published and internationally performed plays for elementary school children. She has been called &quot;an absolute master of rhyming&quot; by Mother Daughter Book Reviews and &quot;a modern day Dr. Seuss&quot; by GMTA Review. She lives in New Hope, Pennsylvania. Now retired, she travels the country with her husband in an RV, going from coast to coast to visit their children and grandchildren, and sharing her books along the way.

Story Behind The Book

When I was thinking about a young adult urban fantasy concept, I knew I wanted to work with angels. Then I started picturing this angel who was arrogant, at least as far as mortals were concerned. I knew I wanted to work with the theme of redemption because invariably all my novels go back to that so I decided to make Lev disdainful of mortals, and very much in need of a lesson about compassion and love. That's how Sojourner was born.

BUY SOJOURNER<br />Buy Sojourner; you won't be disappointed. This is a creative and well paced supernatural romance that keeps you guessing until the end. The characters are complex and inviting, and as a reader I found myself invested in their story from start to finish. The romantic aspects of the book are similar to the Twilight series, but Maria Rachel Hooley has her own worthy story to tell in Sojourner.<br /><br />Timothy Worsham<br /><br />GREAT NEW SERIES<br />I am so glad I found out about this series on kindleboards. This first book really grabbed me from the beginning and it was hard to put down. I wasn't even finished with it before purchasing the second and third books. I liked how Elizabeth and Lev's story developed. Great introduction to a new series.<br /><br />Stacy L. Daniels<br /><br />GREAT YA SERIES THAT HAS THIS ADULT HOOKED<br />I enjoyed this story very much, and have promptly gone and bought the next in the series. This is a very promising author. <br /><br />Joanne Harris
