Dear Reader,
Seventeen and pregnant? How does that happen? Rebellion? Peer pressure? Bad parenting? I started wondering about this last year after reading about a pregnancy pact made by girls in Gloucester, Massachusetts. NOT MY DAUGHTER is the result.
The girls in my book are from good homes, get good grades, are headed for college, and they've never done anything remotely rebellious. Why now? Why this? Two interesting questions, but I added another slant.
The Good Mother. It's a timeless issue that takes on new twists in the modern world but asks the age-old question: What does it take to be a good mother – at 17, 40, or 65? NOT MY DAUGHTER invites you to think about this in a novel about relationships, small-town gossip, and love.
For more information, plus a trailer on this new book, please visit www.barbaradelinsky.com. You'll also find me on Facebook and Twitter. Please write; I'll answer.
Truly,
Barbara Delinsky
