“I killed my mother. Twice if I’m to be completely honest—though she died only one time. And since honesty is one of the things I promised her as she lay on her death bed, I reckon honest I must be.” With this shocking first statement, Kit Donovan will worm her way into your heart and stay there until long after her story is finished. A Nevada mining town in 1905 is barely fit for a grown man, much less a thirteen-year-old girl on her own, but Kit navigates her situation with bravery, humor, and her own kind of grace. The Tragically True Adventures of Kit Donovan is a brilliant middle grade debut by Patricia Bailey. Visit her at her website http://patriciabaileyauthor.com/ and purchase this fabulous book at Amazon https://www.amazon.com/Tragically-True-Adventures-Kit-Donovan/ or from your local book store.
