One of the Best Teen Books of 2006 (Barnes & Noble)
One of the Top Ten Children's Books of 2006 (Washington Post)

TK Welsh's THE UNRESOLVED is on a roll - it's just been nominated for YALSA's 2007 Teens' Top Ten Books! Vote this week to support this touching story of the General Slocum steamship, which caught fire in the East River, New York, in 1904, and resulted in the death of over 1,000 immigrants.

It's no surprise that THE UNRESOLVED by T. K. Welsh (J. G. Sandom) has been nominated for a 2006 Cybill award in the YA fiction category. After all, it is one of the Washington Post's Top Ten Children's Books of 2006.


Another thoughtful book - and perfect gift for the holidays - is THE ART OF FRIENDSHIP by Roger and Sally Horchow. Check out Sally and her childhood buddy Owen Wilson in the December issue of People magazine.
