FRIDAY, APRIL 3RD-F.AVE WELCOMES RAE MARSH
Rae calls Central Florida home with her husband, two daughters, and two puppies. This is her first published children’s chapter book, which took several years of thought to create.
Love, Maggie: Chronicles of 3rd Grade highlights 8-year-old Maggie Montgomery and her hilarious adventures and life lessons while navigating through 3rd grade. Family, fun, friendships, sports, vacations, and theme park days are documented in Maggie’s journal entries. It’s a fun read for the entire family!
