Dear Hank Williams

                 A friend of mine has a new book coming out soon. It's called Dear Hank Williams.

 
I was one of the lucky ones who got an advanced copy. I began reading it the moment it was put in my hands I love it and I highly recommend you reading it.
 
I love classic country music.  I didn't always.  I grew up listening to Madonna, Barbra Streisand, Carpenters and Elvis. Country music was not my favorite.  I claimed it gave me a head ache. One of my closest friend was into horses and rodeos. I loved being with her so we compromised with radio time on our road trips. Hank Williams was one of her favorites. So I have very fond memories riding to New Orleans, Shreveport and Hammond LA listening to all the classics and learning the songs.
 
 When Kimberly shared with me the title of her newest book I couldn't wait.  I love that her character Tate will give young readers a new look at the celebrated Hank Williams and the Louisiana Hay Ride days.  Check out her web site!
