I just saw the news on Pub Lunch and wanted to drop by and say Congratulations! My daughter read your book a couple months ago and SO ENJOYED IT. She even wanted to write a review for it on my blog, which she'd never wanted to do before -- so I think that's saying something. We lived in China for eight years and adopted our daughter while we were living there, so she loves every China connection. Thanks so much for writing a wonderful book and, again, CONGRATS!! Well-deserved.
