"I cant wait to read this. I suffer from chronic fatigue syndrome and possibly fybromyalgia. I absoultey love reading about how others like me survive day to day"
Jeanne Nicholas commented on the blog post 'Five Questions with Elisabeth Tova Bailey'
"I'm hooked. Snared by the facinating story plot, intrigued by the character (sed snail), and moved by the eloquence of the writers response to some very intimidating questions. I'm off to buy the book."

Lauren Michelle commented on the blog post 'Five Questions with Elisabeth Tova Bailey'
"I absolutely LOVED this book! Because it's about snails, it sounds like it would be boring but Bailey has a way of making it fun and interesting to read about. Plus, she makes it personal, which makes it that much more of a good book."

- Hi Paula,
I wanted to connect with you and ask for your feedback. I recently did my first on-camera interview for the children's book on child sexual abuse prevention that I wrote, My Body Belongs to Me. Please let me know what you think when you have some time.
Thanks in advance.
