The first title I've chosen is a biography, "The Prize Winner of Defiance, Ohio: How My Mother Raised 10 Kids on 25 Words or Less" by Terry Ryan.
Read about the book and about the woman who inspired it at these websites:

Ok, so I'm not Evelyn Ryan, but you'll love reading her witty contest entries.
You can easily find copies of the book at your local library, or at Amazon.com. Get your copy and start reading.
We'll meet online in the near future to talk about what we've read. I'll post some questions to spur the conversation. I can't wait to hear from you.
