Excerpt from Roly-Poly Girls

"Em the main character is unsure of her next steps. The sisters are asking for their next meal, the phone is ringing and the minister has stopped by twice in the last three days to see if...she imagined...if the girls were all still alive in the absence of their mother.

Sister love was strong but how would she keep going?"

Ms. King is in her element as a YA author.
