Curious Georgia

I'm Julia DeVillers, an author of books for kids and teens who has moved to Georgia--

The FORMER SOVIET REPUBLIC of GEORGIA.

Well, we are back in the USA. It was a wonderful adventure and I’ll cherish my short time in Tbilisi. My new book is out today— and the second half of the book is set in…Tbilisi, Georgia! My main character is the daughter of the President of the US, and they take Air Force One to the country of Georgia. The characters go to a supra, stomp grapes and learn some of the language: “Gamarjoba!” Sound familiar? I hope American children will learn a little about this wonderful country, and kids in Georgia will enjoy being spotlighted in an American book. Gamarjos! “Cheers!” LIBERTY PORTER, FIRST DAUGHTER: CLEARED FOR TAKEOFF is available in major bookstores, on Amazon and indie bookstores! (Support your independent bookstores!)
