Birthday Bash: 11am-Write Integrity Press

Tracy Ruckman from Write Integrity Press will be sharing on the Art of Eloquence Facebook fan page this Birthday Bash half hour.  Here is what she is offering as a prize for this half hour’s contest: Which Witch? is for middle-grade readers. It tells the story of kids in public school who form a Christian club and combat witchcraft that is trying to take root in their school. It is a very powerful book.
