We have a reader!!!!

Embree has discovered a new series of novels. You might have seen them. They are THE WARRIORS...about clans of cats. I think her cousin, Gregory, might have introduced them to her. Anyway, she's still a bit leary of trying a novel, but we found a WARRIOR series in a genre called, manga. It's a genre of illustrated novel from Japan...sort of a comic book of a novel. It has the story and dialogue, but most of the decription that loses Embree is accomplished through the pictures...about 100 pages. She's finished three this week and, best of all, she's finally interested in reading alone. She's even planning to email the author and ask questions about one of the characters. Wonder of Wonders!
