I have made another Betsy-Tacy Convert! And to clarify -- these converts are not part of the Blog Tour, I'm not counting those as converts per se, even though many of them are falling in love with the series. Today's convert is Ti from Book Chatter and Other Stuff. Read on for her review of Betsy-Tacy, the first book in the series, which she read with her daughter. I can't wait to hear what they think of the rest of the series!
And speaking of Converts -- those of you participating in Betsy-Tacy Convert Week should be receiving your books, and finding out whether you're a Zet or a Philo! (and please forgive my mailing house, which put the Zets letter on orange paper, and I assume, the Philos one on blue, argh!).
As you prepare to go out and convert, take a look at today's hilarious post from Six Boxes of Books: The Top Ten Ways that Deep Valley High (where Betsy goes to high school) is Just Like Gossip Girls. If this doesn't entice a teen, I don't know what will!
I have read the first two and absolutely love them! I will be posting about the books soon, and I'll let you know when I do. These books are too sweet!

Philo Philo Philo!!!!!! Okay so my convert is my oldest friend's 11 year old daughter.It's only fitting I moved across the street from my oldest friend when I was 8 years old. Lisa was never a big reader, thanks heavens her daughter Bianca is. I was telling her about the books she is very interested. Hooray I will be giving her HTB/BISOH reissue this weekend.
I will also be giving her the first 4 books too : ) !!!! Go Philomathians! Whooo hooooooooo!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! Martine in Brooklyn
