Another brilliant niece



I changed the name of this blog to "Family Life" when it became evident that it wasn't going to limit itself to "Life with Mollie". As it spread out and grew more formless, the name stayed, of dubious relevance to most of the content. So I'm glad to announce a new family-based category, Family Watch, in which I plan to take unabashed delight in the doings of my extended family.

My oldest niece has just been signed up by Show and Tell Promotions, a 'booking agency for speakers and presenters working in the broad field of children's literature and media'. Here's her profile. She's smart, witty, charming and wise. If you're tempted to book her to visit your school, do so with my blessing. Her Show and Tell page contains the first Web appearance of the cover of Thrill Seekers, her book of short stories scheduled for publication by Ransom Publishing UK in September. Some of the stories have had outings in, among other places, The Griffith Review. Expect to hear more about this book, and not just from me.
