RUTH PERKINSON

"This book is extremely well written. The characters are somewhat dimensional (as in, there is more to them than specifically what is in the book) and the story is never boring. The author keeps the reader anxiously awaiting the events on the next page. The quality of this story is such that I hope Ruth Perkinson publishes another soon."

A Review of Piper's Someday 

Reviewed by Terri L. Jones, V Magazine for Women

But it’s not easy writing from the perspective of a child. Not only must you come up with convincing dialogue, but you’re also forced to resurrect those unadulterated thought processes that you long ago outgrew. Now, Richmond author Ruth Perkinson has created a character reminiscent of—and as believably and likeably portrayed—as the classic literary tomboys before her, in her new novel, Piper’s Someday.
