It is time to play a Wild Card! Every now and then, a book that I have chosen to read is going to pop up as a FIRST Wild Card Tour. Get dealt into the game! (Just click the button!) Wild Card Tours feature an author and his/her book’s FIRST chapter!

I just posted my review for this one.  You can read it here.  Though strikingly designed and good for reluctant readers, the content and role models are not ones I will be introducing to my children in the target age range.  Read my review for details!

You never know when I might play a wild card on you!
