They — Ruby’s Slippers. It’s no joke. No April Fool’s. My book officially releases today!
It’s Wizard of Oz meets Cinderella story.
When Dottie Meyers loses her ‘no place like home’ during a Kansas tornado, she wakes up to find a pair of ruby slippers left by her father who abandoned his family thirty years ago. With her sister hot on her trail to find the treasured ruby slippers, Dottie travels a yellow brick road with three friends to find her father. No wizard can solve her problems. Only the love of a heavenly father can heal her wounds and give her the desires of her heart.
There’s no place like … the heart for God’s healing touch.
Leanna, you did it again! Ruby’s Slippers may teeter on the edge of Oz, but it never falls in. That’s fine with me, b/c I never just loved The Wizard of Oz. It’s amazing how something like a pair of sequined slippers can tie together a family’s history. And while the story is also humorous, a lot of expressions produce that brain buzz you get with an “a-HA!” moment. A turn of phrase, a photo-blip that condenses the thought–you know how to do it. Thanks for producing a great read. I’m buying everything you get into print.
Thanks, Lee! You’re a sweetie!
Blessings,
Leanna
