Marina Budhos' new book, Tell Us We're Home, is a story about three 8th grade girls, Jaya, Maria and Lola, who live in a privileged suburb in New Jersey. The three girls are all daughters of maids and nannies, and they go to school with the very same kids whose families their mothers work for. Tell Us We're Home is a story of friendship, values, pride and the timely topic of immigration. Watchung Booksellers is thrilled to invite you to a very special Author Party at the Bookstore on Tuesday, July 13th, 7-8pm, to celebrate Marina Budhos' Tell Us We're Home.
Reservations are required. RSVP by July 9th.
(And feel free to invite your Mom!)

Be a teen girl (entering 6-8th Grade in September) Buy the book (and you will receive a ticket to the party for you - and your Mom) Read the book. Think about the book. (Do you have any questions for Marina?) Come to the Party! Meet Marina, meet the other girls (and their Moms), and chat about the book (while sipping on a scrumptious summer beverage and nibbling on some tasty treats).
