Our Interview with the Marvelous Jackson Pearce!


We went to the Decatur Book Festival and we interviewed Jackson Pearce.  Jackson Pearce is an author.  She writes young adult books.  We haven't read her books, but we thought she would be great to interview.  We do watch her YouTube videos (she is really funny-- we like the book pirate video best of all) and we added As You Wish to our growing to-read pile.   Her other books, Sisters Red and Sweetly, are based on Fairy Tales, and since we are kids we know a lot about Fairy Tales! We think authors are the best and it's always fun to learn about authors.  Without further adieu here is the interview...




Oh wait!  There's also a giveaway.  We have one autographed copy of Sisters Red by the marvelous Jackson Pearce!

Here are the rules:
1.  Become a follower if you aren't already one;
2.  Leave a comment on this interview-
     include your email address and tell us your favorite fairy tale!
3. You need a US address, because we are kids and don't have loads of cash for shipping.
4. Contest ends at Midnight on Sunday, September 25th.

  12. Lexi,
    Good pick i like that one too! My favorite is Red Riding Hood. Good luck in the contest. Did you have fun at the Lisa McMann signing? I read Unwanteds. Have you already finished it?
    Thanks,
    Marsh

  13. Yes, I had a blast with Lisa McMann, my mom and I stayed late to talk with her and stuff. I read half of The Unwanteds but then my mom took if from me to read so I couldn't finish. Grrrr. (Did you like it? I did, so far.)

    Thanks for the luck! Hope to see you soon. Are you going to the signing on October 30?

  14. I didn't make to the signing at B&N because my sister won a art contest and had to be at The Decatur Book Festival to get her prize. I met Lisa McMann and I went to her signing at the book festival. I finished Unwanteds and it was fantastic.

    I think we are going to the next signing. Hope to see you soon too.
