And we both happen to love #bookposse! I couldn't be more grateful to the readers who comprise #bookposse. Thank you for taking the time to read my book, share it, and pass it on to the next reader. You know you made a difference in my book launch! Thank you for being so awesome!
What a fun read - I have such happy memories of summer camp, though I don’t think we ever saw a Bigfoot. 😉 Highly recommend this middle-grade book! #bookposse @ditchburnpatton #bigfoot

This #bookposse favorite just arrived! No video game has prepared Zander for wilderness camp - and what are those giant footprints the campers keep finding? @ditchburnpatton
