1. I like potato chips dipped in ketchup accompanied by a cold glass of chocolate milk.
 
2. My go-to and easy-to-prepare dinner is chicken on the grill cooked by my hubby, GT, baked potato (baked in the microwave) and a salad or fresh fruit.
 
3. I am not a fan of zucchini except when it is used in zucchini bread or cake. This is the peak of the zucchini harvest, so we are eating a LOT of zucchini cake!

This sounds like an amazing book for girls who don't have a plan and for those who have chosen a career, but may need help accomplishing it. I think this will be a great book for the target audience. I wish her luck.

BTW, I also love zucchini bread and cake, too.

Hi Sandra - I went on to purchase your book Geller's Find but, the book cover is different on Amazon. I just want to make sure I am purchasing the correct book?

The paperback cover is the original cover. Confusing, innit?

Thanks, Birgit. We all try to help each other. It takes a village to raise an author, to misquote Hilary:) And yes, it is empowering for teen girls.
