Thanks for the kind words, everyone. And Marshall, where are you from in West Virginia? I'm originally from Petersburg, now in New york. and yes, your daughter is the perfect age for the book. My son's 11 also and reads constantly, much to my delight. Haven't been able to get him into baseball cards, unfortunately. But I'll take what I can get.

We live in Fairmont, but also own a summer home in Doddridge County on Crystal Lake. I think our daughter would thoroughly enjoy the book. She likes that TV show about the Bigfoot hunters! She's not into card collecting at all, but loves going to Pittsburgh Pirates games.

I have a cousin who went to Fairmont State. And my grandparents on both sides were from Preston County, not too far from there. So I'm quite familiar with the area. I miss West Virginia. Love where I am in New York now, but West Virginia was a wonderful place to grow up.
Should you decide to get your daughter the book, I hope she enjoys it. And if she does, tell all her friends!
Thanks again.
