three kids and their  dad walking in Disneyland

 

 “An inspiration in the truest sense. [This] story fills the world with the breath of hope.”
—JACQUELYN MITCHARD, author of The Deep End of the Ocean and Second Nature: A Love Story

“I should tell you that I fell in love with David Marin, the human being, when I heard about his book. A single guy adopting three little Mexican-American kids! Then, I started reading This Is US and I fell in love with David Marin, the writer. This guy can make the craziness of a bureaucracy funny; he can turn a trip to McDonald’s into an absorbing read; and mostly he can stir your heart by describing the life of his new All-American family . . .  The love is palpable; the prose throbs with life; the insights sparkle.”
—JULIA ALVAREZ, author of How the García Girls Lost Their Accents, In the Time of the Butterflies, Return to Sender, and Once Upon a Quinceañera: Coming of Age in the USA

for more on THIS IS US: The New All-American Family, by David Marin…

and read an excerpt from THIS IS US…

 

And more from the Exterminating Angel Press workshop…

cover of SNOTTY    SAVES THE DAY

"COOL READS…The most audacious and unusual book I have read this year. If you are intrigued by how [fairy tales] are manipulated with such ease by pop culture mavens and movie makers, if you are tired of the way in which he heedlessly hurdle from one familiar story after another then you will find the cheekiness of Davies' story to be wildly appealing."  —Colleen Mondor, BOOKSLUT

"Ms. Davies blends folklore, fairy tales, fantasy, and even oral tradition—and does so brilliantly….Snotty Saves the Day is a book for mature or precocious teens, for fantasy and tale-within-a-tale lovers, and for thoughtful adults who seek the wonder and optimism so badly needed in today's times."— Sally D. Ketchum | The New York Journal of Books

 “Fascinating . . . A quirky, intelligent, and imaginative read for mid-teens and up . . . anyone who enjoys reading or studying fairy or folk tales and fantasy will especially enjoy this.”—ForeWord Reviews

 “A smart, funny, and thought-provoking read for readers of all ages, Snotty Saves the Day has me eagerly awaiting its sequel.” —DAVID GUTOWSKI, Largehearted Boy

 

Read an excerpt from SNOTTY SAVES THE DAY: The History of Arcadia, by Tod Davies, with illustrations by Gary Zaboly…
