I'd recommend this to my friends if they were interested in S.E. Hinton. I'd tell them that it talks about how she got her start as an author and where her inspiration for her books came from, which is really interesting if you like her writing. 4Q2P The cover art is okay and I'd recommend this to people of any age who are interested in the subject. I chose to read this book because I had to read a non-fiction book for my class and S.E. Hinton wrote one of my favorite books, "The Outsiders". KylahL
