It's been to pretty much every publisher there is, I think :) It came close twice. I rewrote it twice for Dial and 8 times for Harcourt. Everyone who has seen it likes it... but just not enough. I love it though. It's about a little girl who doesn't want to be a witch - she wants to use her magical talents for something else :)Susanna Leonard Hillhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17655630528649780363noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6675047530592600496.post-44927474946821433122012-05-31T15:46:25.422-04:002012-05-31T15:46:25.422-04:00P.S.
