Yes, the Pilot Mountain Story is ever closer to being a reality, a narrative nonfiction hold in your hands book.
I'm pleased. Ecstatic would be a better word choice, but I'll stick with pleased, just to stay cool about it.
It's a combination of two pictures, the front entrance of the school, Andrew Pitts, photographer, and a 1956 picture of a student posing on the bumper of the school bus, Mary Waters, photographer. This cover girl represents all that is good and innocent and possible in a "picture is worth a thousand words" kind of way. Life was different back then, as different and yet as alike as this 1950's school bus is to the 2012 bus of today. Some things change, like fashion and style and bus design; some things never do, like possibilities in the face of a child. That's what this cover says.
Can't wait for you to read the book! Coming soon!
Catch of the day,
Gretchen
