The Friday 56


Rules:
*Grab the book nearest you. Right now.
*Turn to page 56.
*Find the 5th sentence.
*Post that sentence (plus one or two others if you like) along with these instructions on your blog or (if you do not have your own blog) in the comments section of Storytime with Tonya and Friends.
*Post a link along with your post back to Storytime with Tonya and Friends.
*Don't dig for your favorite book, the coolest, the most intellectual. Use the CLOSEST.
My excerpt comes from the book Prayers for Sale by Sandra Dallas.
