About the Book (Excerpts & Info)

It isn’t easy being the big sister to three mischievous little girls. Privacy is unheard of and often talents go unnoticed. In Just Me, Sammie, this older sister, Sammie, is simply searching for a way to become something special. Naturally, to her family, she is already very special, but Sammie needs to prove it to herself, and thus her journey begins.

Sammie has a secret desire to be a writer, but where does she begin? In order to “test the waters”, Sammie starts a diary. Author Marybelle Vancil turns Sammie’s diary entries into a yearlong search for independence, self-respect, and gives the reader a peek inside this twelve-year-old’s world. One day per month is featured, with a clever narrative containing family interaction and insight as Sammie speeds through this year of enlightenment toward her thirteenth birthday.

Pre-teens and young adults will most likely see a little of themselves in Sammie’s journey, just as older readers can enjoy a trip down memory lane as they fondly recall their own childhood.

Deftly constructed at 133 pages, Just Me, Sammie is being aggressively promoted to appropriate markets with a focus on the Fiction category. With U.S. wholesale distribution through Ingram and Baker & Taylor, and pervasive online availability through Amazon, Barnes & Noble and elsewhere, Just Me, Sammie meets consumer demand through both retail and library markets with a suggested retail price of $13.95 and $28.95, respectively.

Additionally, Just Me, Sammie can be ordered by retailers or wholesalers for the maximum trade discount price set by the author in quantities of ten or more from the Outskirts Press wholesale online bookstore at www.outskirtspress.com/buybooks
