Oh, Dearest Mother, Sweetest Virgin of Altagracia, our Patroness. You are our Advocate and to you we recommend our needs. You are our Teacher and like disciples we come to learn from the example of your holy life. You are our Mother, and like children, we come to offer you all of the love of our hearts. Receive, dearest Mother, our offerings and listen attentively to our supplications. Amen.

Anyone see this?

It is interesting that it was written *before* "To Kill a Mockingbird" but is the sequel to that story... kind of a Star Wars thing going on, but hopefully better than the prequels there.

I did see that. And I"m fighting having the same feelings I have about the LOTR movies: Noooooo! Noooooooo!

"Negative initial reaction" does run in our family. :)

And yeah, I know it's a book, not a movie.

I've been disturbed by some of the articles I've seen speculating that Miss Lee is being taken advantage of. It certainly seems that way. This is the best one I read.
