<DIV>Hi all,</DIV>
<DIV> </DIV>
<DIV>Just wanted to share that my middle school book club recently read "The Left Behinds: The iPhone that Saved George Washington" by David Potter and they really liked it. Then yesterday we Skyped with the author! I am sure some of you have already done this, but we hadn't </DIV>
<DIV>because our book club meets at the school so the technology link would be up to the school. Plus we meet after school and this could have been an issue with the school, too. I am happy to say, the school though it was a great idea and the school's technology director set it all up for me and stayed the entire time. He then told me he was excited to hear David talk to the kids as much as I was! The tech director has two kids in the elementary school so he is always on the look out for books for his sons.</DIV>
<DIV> </DIV>
<DIV>The author, David Potter, lives in NJ and since we are in MI and don't have funds to bring authors in for 30 kids, this was a great alternative for us. As I said, I am sure there are many of you out there that do this already, but for those that have elementary, junior or high school age book clubs, this was a super program that worked out for us We also never lost our Skype connection which was also a great thing! </DIV>
<DIV> </DIV>
<DIV>Anyway, keep in mind that many authors do this and many do it for free as David did for us. FYI his second book comes out in January and is called "The Left Behinds: Abe Lincoln and the Selfie that Saved the Union" and his website is <A href="http://www.davidpotterbooks.com">www.davidpotterbooks.com</A> </DIV>
