My teaser sentences for today [Christmas Jars by Jason F. Wright (Pg 7)]:
On her last day of kindergarten, Hope Jensen announced, walking hand in hand with her mother, that she had finally made a decision about her career. "One day I will grow up to become either president of the United States or a famous newspaper reporter."
I vote for being a famous newspaper reporter :)

Literarily
Oh that is so cute.
I think in kindergarten I still wanted to be a nun - which, I should point out, came entirely from my MANY viewings of Sound of Music. Our family wasn't a church going one, so you can imagine how odd it must have sounded.
Sounds cute! I think I've seen an interview with the author about it before. I'll have to put my teaser up in the morning. Too tired now!
Shana - Me too! ;P
Rebecca - It doesn't sound odd to me at all! :) I too enjoyed Sound of Music and don't think I'll ever get tired of it.
Jen - It's an inspiring and heartwarming story! I'm enjoying it so far. Can't wait to read your teaser. :)
Quite the decision--president or reporter. I've left you something here. No pressure too play along, but grab your award!
Trish - I'd definitely choose being a reporter if I were the little girl, hehe. ;P
Thank you so much for the award! :)
That is good teaser! Please let me know when your review are up, am interested! If it not lot of pages, maybe I will read it during the Christmas holidays!
I think being a reporter would be much more fun! LOL Great teaser, Melody!
Love the tease, too! I think I'd pick being a novelist instead :-)
Julia - I'll try to post the review soon! ;)
Wendy - I think the same thing too! ;P
Jason - Thanks for commenting on my blog! :) I really enjoyed reading Christmas Jars! It's such a wonderful and inspiring story! Being a novelist is a GREAT choice too! I'd love to be one if I've the skills and talents. ;)
I want to be a reporter, Melody! hehe... that's a great teaser, btw. :D
Me too, Alice! Their job is always so exciting, eh? ;P
great teaser, you're making me want to read this book...lol.
Hope sounds like a cute character.
