The Help

The Help is our book for August; thought you'd like to visit the author's website and check out the discussion questions (although I have a feeling that our discussion will go WAY beyond the suggested questions!).

Click here for a video trailer with the author. For discussion questions, go here.

If you're interested in the Salem of the 17th Century, you might like to read about my twelfth great-grandmother on our tribal page or on wikipedia.
