Teaser Tuesday

Photobucket

Teaser Tuesday is hosted by Should be Reading. Anyone can play along! Just do the following:
•Grab your current read
•Open to a random page

•Share two (2) “teaser” sentences from somewhere on that page
•BE CAREFUL NOT TO INCLUDE SPOILERS! (make sure that what you share doesn’t give too much away! You don’t want to ruin the book for others!)
•Share the title & author, too, so that other TT participants can add the book to their TBR Lists if they like your teasers!



Strawberry Girl by Lois Lenski

"Let's go back home to Caroliny," sobbed Ma. "We can't never live peaceable here in Floridy, where there's sich goin's-on..." p.143

  9. I love when authors use dialect in a novel! I haven't heard of this one, but looks like I should be quite embarrassed to admit that. ;)

    I will have to check out this award-winning book! Thanks for the teaser. It definitely has me interested. :)
