So today is it the last day of the Jimmy's Stars Book Tour. For the past two days I was one of the few lucky bloggers that have gotten a chance to read Jimmy's Stars by Mary Ann Rodman and get an interview with the author. But what I haven't told you yet is that the other bloggers that read Jimmy's Stars are liking it as much as I did! So basically in this post I am going to be quoting bloggers on why they think you should buy the book.
But first if you missed Day 1 or Day 2 of the blog tour I sugest you go to those first:
Day 1 (Review of Jimmy's Stars)
Day 2 (Interview with Mary Ann Rodman)
And now for what others are saying about Jimmy's Stars:
"Not only do I give Jimmy's Stars my highest recommendation, I also believe that this would be a perfect book for a book club pick. Such a perfect book for young people (and adults alike) to read and discuss together. Mary Ann Rodman brings forth an engrossing story, with Jimmy's Stars, and displays a true talent to engulf young people in the treasure of reading." A Childhood of Dreams
"Although Jimmy’s Stars is intended for the middle school crowd, I was hooked immediately. I instantly felt like a member of the neighborhood and cried along with the characters when Jimmy was drafted. Ellie does a lot of growing up through the book and is a character even I could identify with. I would highly recommend this book to anyone who has a middle school aged child and also to any adult." A Mom Speaks
"Jimmy’s Stars was the first book that I have read in a long time that has brought me close to tears! Mary Ann Rodman does an incredible job conveying the feelings of a nation in the midst of war. You’ll feel like you are being transported back in time when you pick up this book! " By The Book Reviews
And those are just some of the great reviews for Jimmy's Stars. So what are you waiting for?? head on over to Amazon and purchase this heart captivatiting story!

Kyle...Thank you so much for being a part of the tour.
You've made me want to read the book...and I wrote it! I should probably tell you that I usually do not read my own books once they are in print, because I can always find something I wish I had added or left out. In otherwords...I could edit forever! But your review, and the kind words of the other bloggers and readers have encouraged to go back and try to read it as a reader...and not as an obsessive writer!
Thank you again...MA
