Look what's here!
From left to right: Beautiful, amazing, shiny, incredible, first-I've-ever-seen hardback copy of Operation Yes; back of promotional postcard with stellar flap copy on it; front of promotional postcard with same glorious cover on it; pinch-me-I'm-going-to-be-in-the-Scholastic-Book-Fair edition.
And if that's not enough, here are the two blurbs that appear on the back cover of the hardback edition:
"Transformative, inspirational, and just plain fun, Operation Yes is a book that not only nudges readers to look around and ask 'Where am I?' but may just give them the courage to create answers all their own." --- Linda Urban, author of A Crooked Kind of Perfect
"Operation Yes grabbed me on page one---how I would have loved to have been a student in Room 208! Sara Lewis Holmes provides a heartfelt and honest look inside the lives of military families with an unforgettable cast of characters. There's only one word for this book: Yes!" --- Barbara O'Connor, author of How to Steal a Dog
Would now be a good time to tell you that the blog and website for Operation Yes is up and running?
Come see me!
That all just makes me happy. I'm looking forward to more people reading the book and seeing all the wonderful reviews and, of course, when that inevitable first child comes up to the desk at the library and asks me for it and I can be all, "Oh, yeah, I know her."
