TERESA: IT IS NOT EVERY DAY YOU HEAR ABOUT AN EIGHTH GRADER PUBLISHING A BOOK. RYAN: NOW SHE IS A FRESHMAN IN HIGH SCHOOL. SHE JOINS US HERE ON CT STYLE. THIS BOOK HAS BEEN IN THE MAKING FOR YOU. CONGRATULATIONS ON ALL THE SUCCESS. TERESA: SHE IS 14. SHE IS A FRESHMAN. GO PANTHERS. IT'S ABOUT A FAMILY THAT MOVES FROM ENGLAND TO AMERICA IN 1911. THEY EMBARK ON THIS BIG ADVENTURE AFTER EXPERIENCING MANY CONFLICTS. RYAN: YOU HAVE TO READ IT. IT IS DEDICATED TO YOUR TWIN BROTHER WHO DOESN'T LIKE TO
READ. THAT IS IRONIC. I AM ON THE SEQUEL RIGHT NOW. RYAN: HOW LONG'S YOU TO WRITE THIS? IT TOOK YOU TWO YEARS TO WRITE THIS ONE. THE YOU THINK THE SEQUEL WILL TAKE AS LONG. YES. HIGH SCHOOL IS A LOT BUSIER WITH A LOT MORE WORK TO DO. TERESA: DID YOU KNOW YOU ARE GOING TO BE A PUBLISHED AUTHOR? WAS THAT THE PLAN? IT STARTED OUT AS AN ASSIGNMENT. I THOUGHT IT WAS JUST GOING TO BE A RANDOM PIECE SITTING IN MY GOOGLE DRIVE. MY ENGLISH TEACHER READ IT. HE PUSHED ME TO PUBLISH IT. TERESA: THAT'S FANTA
STIC. YOU CAN FIND IT ON AMAZON AND BOOKSTORES. TERESA: YOU ARE GOING TO BE IN
