The first reviews on Book 3 are in.

I really enjoyed the book and I liked
the  chalk it up project and the baby.  I also liked the format of the diary,
but it  was a bit unclear at the beginning what was going on. Overall, it was
a  really good book and I enjoyed it.

Received your book a  few days ago. Just finished reading it. Really enjoyed the book. Made you feel  like you would want to become part of her family.

Great  book! Lots of information. Fun to read about such a nice
family. Enjoyed the  part where Jason gets “caught” at the airport. Thanks for
mentioning our  forge.

I own a small store in Southern Pines, NC.  Mary Ann has
dropped off all three books of the In This World Do I see
series.  I am a retired teacher from grades 3 to 5.  The books are
written in the epistolary format of a young girl’s diary.  Eliza is
10 years old in book one, in book 3 she is 13.  Mary Ann’s style
of writing reminds
me of the Dear Mr. Henshaw series written by Beverly Cleary.

  Loved it ... great book.  I also had a chance to go into your website and look at some of the others as well.
I AM VERY, VERY PROUD OF YOU !!!!   You have done an excellent job of scripting and story telling;
but then again, I always knew how talented you were!
